00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty nine is upon us. I think we can

19
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: now start speaking about the game in earnest as these

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: teams are making their way over to the Super Bowl site,

21
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: whether it be in preparation or actually on site right

22
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: now in New Orleans. But yeah, it's It's gonna be

23
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: an interesting week because here we are over the weekend

24
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: discussing this. But we know much of the Monday morning

25
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: banter and Tuesday morning banter Tuesday banter is going to

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: be about what just happened in the NBA. Well, no doubt.

27
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 2: In fact, it will be a subject matter in New Orleans.

28
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I promise you Radio Row, you know, media Row.

29
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: As they now call it.

30
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 2: These days, everyone's gonna be buzzying about the same thing.

31
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 2: The first trade ever in NBA history where two players

32
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: who were on the previous year's All NBA team were

33
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: traded for each other.

34
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 3: This has never happened in the history of the NBA.

35
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: Now, my younger son, Garrett, who is twenty six now,

36
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: he has lived in breathe the Laker basketball since birth.

37
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: The NBA is his deal. I've met your son several times.

38
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember, it's only maybe twice I've seen

39
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: him not wearing Lakers gear. Yeah.

40
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 2: So it's Saturday night at the house, right, Yeah, and

41
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: I'm I'm just sitting there typing stats away doing my

42
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 2: usual late night thing. Right, all of a sudden, I

43
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: hear this primal scream. So he comes running in he

44
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: goes Sean's is putting out that there I go, it

45
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: was his account hacked. I mean, I mean, come on,

46
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: this doesn't make any sense, because there's no way the

47
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 2: Lakers have enough to trade for Luka Doncic. For a

48
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: twenty five year old Lukadancis. They'd have to give a

49
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: what ten number ones? They only can give up three

50
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: or four. They just don't have enough trade capital to

51
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 2: make a deal to get a twenty five year old

52
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: Luka Doncic.

53
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 3: And then he breaks down the trade, I'm like, okay,

54
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 3: well that's fake.

55
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 2: I mean, first of all, there's no way they could

56
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: give up that to get Luka Doncic. And in fact,

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: it's real. You know, there's so many layers to this

58
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: rich and we're gonna we're gonna hit a lot of layers,

59
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 2: but just just the actual mechanics of this trade. If

60
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: I'm the NBA, I'm investigating what is going on with

61
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: the Dallas Mavericks because for them to essentially give away

62
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: Luka Doncic at age twenty five for what they got

63
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 2: in return tells me it's an organization that's not willing

64
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 2: to spend money. He was going to get the super

65
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: Max deal five years, three hundred and forty five million

66
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: quick math. That's close to seventy million a year.

67
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: They didn't want to pay him.

68
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: And so if I'm the league, this is a league,

69
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 2: by the way, in the past that has acts trades

70
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 2: over the years many times. And so how is deal

71
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: actually was allowed or is being allowed under the terms

72
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: of this deal to me, needs a huge explanation.

73
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 1: I'm curious what we don't know and what investigative reporting

74
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: will be done from here until we have a better

75
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: understanding of how this all went down. But here's what

76
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: we do know. We do know that it seems like

77
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks got absolutely jobbed in the trade. The

78
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: Jazz were thrown in as an ancillary part of this

79
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: three team trade where they receive Jaalen Hood Schafano and

80
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: the LA Clippers twenty twenty five second round pick and

81
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: the Mavericks twenty twenty five second round selection. That's like

82
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: a side piece too. Obviously, the fact that.

83
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 2: Three nothings three nothings, that Ad and Luka Doncic have

84
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 2: flip flop, And to your point, is this because the

85
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 2: Lakers and Lebron really wanted to divorce themselves from ad

86
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: where they all of a sudden extremely motivated and interested

87
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 2: because there was a team out there who was interested

88
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: in sending a superstar for a superstar.

89
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: Was it vice versa? Was there bad blood growing in Dallas?

90
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: Have Luka Doncic outstayed his welcome? Has you know the

91
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: reports that he's habitually overweight and under conditioned to start

92
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: basketball seasons in missing time as one of the brightest

93
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: stars in the sport. Has it finally graded the nerves

94
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: raw over there in Dallas. I'm really curious what we

95
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: don't know. What we do know is fascinating, But what's

96
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: more fascinating is how how did this happen? All Right?

97
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 3: So Rich, here's here's the bottom line.

98
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: I have been following Lakers basketball since the day they

99
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 2: made the trade to get wil Chamberlain from the Philadelphia

100
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: seventy six ers. And when they made that trade, by

101
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 2: the way, he was the three time raining MVP of

102
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia seventy six Ers, still in the prime of

103
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 2: his career, and they basically got him for a song

104
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 2: and dance. So let's make this infinitely clear about the

105
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 2: single most important franchise in the NBA, and that is

106
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Lakers. When you think about it. They

107
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 2: stole Wilt Chamberlain from the seventy six ers. They stole

108
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 2: Kareem abdul Jabbar for nothing from the Milwaukee Bucks in

109
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: the prime of his career. They stole Shaquille O'Neal on

110
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 2: a technicality free agent window of about an hour and

111
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 2: a half, stole him from the Orlando Magic. They get

112
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 2: Pau Gasol essentially for his brother that was a steal,

113
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: and Anthony Davis.

114
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 3: These are all deals they made.

115
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 2: But if you look at the core of the Lakers,

116
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 2: it's been Jerry West homegrown, Magic Johnson homegrown, Kobe Bryant homegrown.

117
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: And then they needed to.

118
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 2: Make a deal to get a catalyst, which they did

119
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: in Lebron James. And now they're being awarded Lukadancic for

120
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 2: the future of this franchise. And believe me, the Lakers

121
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 2: will now have the draft capital and player personnel necessary

122
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 2: to eventually get the big that they desperately obviously need

123
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 2: because right now they don't have any rimperant protector but

124
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 2: the legal make sure.

125
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 3: Don't worry, the Lakers will be good down the road.

126
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: So this is when we talk about you know, an

127
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 2: investigation of how the Mavericks can make this deal to

128
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: give up a twenty five year old superstar the level

129
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: Luka doncis for nothing. You know, I'm not saying Anthony

130
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 2: Davis is nothing, but he's thirty one years old, has

131
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: had injury problems, and that's not comfortable to a twenty

132
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: five year old like Luka Doncic. There needs to be

133
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 2: investigation of this league because if I'm owners, it's not

134
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: about Mavericks fans being upset. If I'm an owner, I'm like,

135
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: how is this deal being made? And how is it that,

136
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: you know, the Mavericks just out of the blue give

137
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 2: the Lakers a call and make a deal just like that.

138
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 3: How is this even allowed by this league?

139
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: So what's so fascinating about fans is oftentimes when and

140
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm talking about fans of sport, not just fans of

141
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: basketball or football, but fans in general, is you become

142
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: incensed when you see a team have success. Right, you know,

143
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: the rallying cry leading up to Super Bowl fifty nine

144
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: is the Chiefs are cheaters and it's because the refs

145
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: are helping them out. Well, here's the thing. Even if

146
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,559
Speaker 1: Josh Allen did break the plane and earn that first

147
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: down on the fourth down conversion try. They still had

148
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: to make the plays to beat the Chiefs, even while

149
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: the Chiefs stuffed them there and got whatever you call

150
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: it a turnover on downs, I mean, they still had

151
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: to go down and score. And by the way, the

152
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: Bills answered back like so, even when it's something like

153
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: gameplay related, fans are incensed over these things because the

154
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: Chiefs earn their way to the super Bowl. You can't

155
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: convince me otherwise. But still there are people out there

156
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: saying that there's a conspiracy to help the Chiefs. This

157
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: feels even more so down that rabbit hole than anything

158
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: you could blame on the refs or the NFL helping

159
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: bolster the Chiefs, because to your point, this is one

160
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: of the most uneven trades we've ever seen in the

161
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: history of the NBA. But this, man Rich, we've seen

162
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: zero over the years.

163
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: I just gave you, I know, an example after another

164
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: of the Lakers stealing superstars for way below market value.

165
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how it's possible that this has occurred.

166
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: And also, if you want to talk about something stinky

167
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: in Denmark, if you want to talk about the fishiest

168
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: part of this. Luka Doncic hasn't played since December, like,

169
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's strained his calf again, granted, but still

170
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: like they've been keeping him on the shelf since the

171
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: end of last year. It is almost it is February. Sorry,

172
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: it's February. Second. I mean the fact that they've kept

173
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: this player on ice while they've been shopping a trade

174
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: for him, and then got the fuzzy end of the

175
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: lollipop on the deal with the Lakers. I mean this

176
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: all to me, it's a bizarre set of circumstances. I

177
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: don't know how Dallas looks or anybody involved in this trade,

178
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison, their GM, their ownership or whoever, unless they're

179
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: planning on absolutely tanking right and then moving the Dallas

180
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: Mavericks to a different city. Maybe, I don't know. I mean,

181
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: that's the only way you would be okay with getting

182
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: jobbed this bad into trade though, if it was intentional,

183
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: if you are trying to tear this building to the

184
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: studs or this roster to the studs and then uproot

185
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: the franchise, because how else does it make sense to

186
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: agree to something like this?

187
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 2: All right, so they're spin on it as you mentioned

188
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: the idea that Luca has missed a lot of games.

189
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 2: If you look at he plays sixty six games a year,

190
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 2: like every year, it's like sixty.

191
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: I bet all of a sudden he's gonna be real

192
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: healthy when he gets to LA.

193
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 3: Well, he's gonna have to eat better.

194
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 2: Okay, but that outside they were just talking about that

195
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 2: defense wins championships. Again, this is a Mavericks team that

196
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 2: was in the NBA Finals a year ago.

197
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: I will say this, in the short.

198
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: Term, pairing Kyrie Irving with Anthony Davis is great.

199
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: In the short term.

200
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 2: I mean, Kyrie's going to be thirty three years old

201
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 2: here shortly, and ad obviously at thirty one years of age,

202
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 2: what do you feel like an old thirty one.

203
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: Because his body's been breaking down.

204
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: But that combination of a dynamic point guard with a

205
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: really great big makes a lot of sense short term.

206
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 2: As far as the Lakers are concerned, what's going to

207
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 2: be interesting because they've been saying that, First of all,

208
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 2: does anyone honestly believe that this deal went down without

209
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 2: any knowledge of Lebron James? They said, you know, after

210
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 2: they said the garden, after the garden, No, no, no, let's

211
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 2: get to that.

212
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 1: On the other side, the tweet that came out giving

213
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: Lebron James an alibi that this was a complete shock

214
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: to him is just as shocking. That's the story. It's

215
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: a fake fake. Let me find the tweet while we

216
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: take a break. I know it's unbelievable because we will

217
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: on the other side.

218
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, the idea that somehow the Lakers made this

219
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 2: deal and Lebron had no nose.

220
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: He was out to dinner after.

221
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: They're winning the garden, right, He's just handing out with friends.

222
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: And what what? What just happened to here?

00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: game is concerned. But look, even in New Orleans as

240
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 2: we are leading up to the big Super Bowl game,

241
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 2: everyone's buzzing about a historic trade. There's never actually been

242
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: a trade like this in the history of the NBA.

243
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 3: Again, where two players who are on the All.

244
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: NBA team the year before are traded in a mid

245
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 2: season trade the following season has never happened in the

246
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 2: history of the NBA.

247
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: So we were talking about the.

248
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: Notification that came out right after the trade that after

249
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: the Lakers got a nice win, by the way, without

250
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis in the garden, that Lebron was out to

251
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 2: dinner New York with his family when all of a sudden,

252
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 2: sham's reported about this trade came down and he completely blindsided.

253
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 2: What I'm gonna have to figure this out? Digested You

254
00:13:58,960 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 2: actually have the tweet.

255
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, So Dave McManamon, who covers the league for ESPN,

256
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: had this tweet and he's been covering Lebron for almost

257
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: the entirety of his career. But he writes Lebron James

258
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: learn of the Davis Doncitz trade after the next game

259
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: when it broke while he was out to dinner with

260
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: his family. Sources close to the James Is told ESPN

261
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: James was surprised by the news is processing it and

262
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: had no idea it was in the work. Sources said,

263
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: also breaking just now, that was twelve hours ago, breaking

264
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: just now. Lebron James also learning that the sky is blue,

265
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: and sources close to the situation saying he's just found

266
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: out grass is green and water is in fact wet.

267
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: So very good. Yeah, good reporting there.

268
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: During the break, you said something rich that turned my

269
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 5: brain on. And I remember, I believe it was this

270
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 5: show that I formulated it a couple years ago, maybe

271
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 5: last year, that when Lebron retires, he would move it

272
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 5: to he would have it team in Vegas as an owner.

273
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

274
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 5: When you look at who's purchased the Mavericks, the Addelson,

275
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 5: Mary Maddison, Big Vegas Empire.

276
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: Yep uh.

277
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 5: They just traded Luka Doncic to the Lakers to get

278
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 5: to help you know, to help Lebron whatever, what if

279
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 5: Addelson wants to move the Mavericks to Vegas.

280
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: Oh oh, and let's.

281
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: Take it a seid that you're right on the money

282
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 3: bow And how about this?

283
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 2: So one thing we do know about Lebron James is

284
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: that he has been very fascinated by Luka Doncic ever

285
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: since he came in the league. Like, this is a

286
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 2: guy that really intrigues him. If you if you really

287
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 2: look at their games, so very similar. When you look

288
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: at Luca's game, his numbers, you know, the rebounding, the

289
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 2: assist on top of all the scoring. It's very similar

290
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: to Lebron James type of player. But if you think

291
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 2: about it, right, right, So you have Adelson there with

292
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: all those connections to Vegas, acquiring controlling interest in the

293
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks, and all of a sudden you have a

294
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 2: partnership down the road. You already have Tom Brady and Vegas.

295
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: Why not Lebron James is Vegas. Lebron steps down, right,

296
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: I mean he fulfilled the last thing on his checklist

297
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 2: was what to play with his son, that's right, and

298
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: he did that. So forty years old, twenty two years

299
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 2: in the league, records that will probably never be broken,

300
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 2: and he steps away, and now the Lakers end up

301
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 2: with insurance for their future and luka doncic. It really

302
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: is amazing how the domino In fact, I'm reading I'm

303
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: hearing a lot of domino in the news right now,

304
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: like the domino effect of this trade. Well not just

305
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 2: on these two organizations, but the entire lead.

306
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: Let me, let me give you the reason why my

307
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: brain went there, Bo and Steve. It's because so Sheldon Adelson.

308
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: If you remember back when the Raiders they were trying

309
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: to move back to Los Angeles, you know the double

310
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: Team Carson idea that fell through. But Mark Davis wanted

311
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 1: to move. He wanted to move, he wanted to get

312
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: out of Oakland. So all of a sudden, Vegas comes

313
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: up as a potentiality and he needed help. So who

314
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: did he call twenty five billion dollar net worth Cosmo

315
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: Hotel and casino mogul Sheldon Addelson, who massaged it through

316
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: the state to get seven hundred and fifty million dollars

317
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: approved in taxpayer money to help build the Rumba in

318
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: the Desert, which is a Legion stadium. Well, Sheldon Adelson

319
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: obviously is in Vegas for a reason. He's made hiss,

320
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: He's made his bones in Vegas's that's the family's fortune.

321
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 1: And so you're telling me that Addelson, his family members

322
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: who now owned the the Dallas Mavericks, aren't interested in

323
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: potentially finding a way to exploit a market that is

324
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: primed for the NBA, that is eager for the NBA.

325
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: This feels to me like a teardown.

326
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's no way the NBA is not in

327
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 5: Las Vegas in the next five six.

328
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: Years, precisely a chance. And I don't know how well

329
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: the NBA does in Dallas. I mean, obviously they've they

330
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: just had a Finals appearance. But I get the sincere

331
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: feeling that the only way you make a trade like this,

332
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: and and what I mean by like this, where one

333
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: side gets so lopsidedly bag over the head punched in

334
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 1: the trade like the Dallas Mavericks just did, is only

335
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: if you're eager to make sure that the demise of

336
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 1: this of this franchise is quick, like like there must

337
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: be a clock ticking somewhere in the near distance, Like

338
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: we got to make sure we suck bad enough so

339
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: that this city that we play in currently hates us

340
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: enough that the fan base is literally shoving us out

341
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: the door.

342
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 5: It's it's much easier to move your team when you

343
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 5: don't have a guy making three hundred and twenty million

344
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 5: dollars or which it is on your books. But also

345
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 5: when you think about it too, like it makes a

346
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,199
Speaker 5: ton of sense for the Mavericks to move a doll

347
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 5: or to move Vegas because they don't even have to

348
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 5: change their name. They can just be the Las Vegas Mavericks.

349
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 5: That fits perfectly, Yeah, it does.

350
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 1: Look.

351
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 2: The bottom line is, though, if somehow Lebron, well, if

352
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: likely Lebron is involved in all the shenanigans, I don't

353
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 2: know how Lebron, if you ever cross passed with Anthony

354
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 2: Davis again, can never actually look him straight in the

355
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 2: eye and seriously say, dude, I had no idea, Man,

356
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: I just you know you're my god.

357
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: Isn't also under the Clutch Sports banner?

358
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 4: Is he?

359
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: So? I know Davis is obviously Lebron is Rich Paul,

360
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: his lifetime friend, is the CEO of Clutch Sports. I'm

361
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: fairly certain Doncic is under the day He's got this,

362
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: I mean, but still the fact that ad is and

363
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: that Lebron is is saying that he had no idea.

364
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Rich Paul didn't pick up the phone.

365
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: Went Now, Lebron, I know we've known each other since childhood.

366
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: But there's something big that I'm doing behind the scenes

367
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: that I'm eager to tell you about. But I feel

368
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 1: like it would be a conflict of interest if I

369
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: talk to you about Do you want me to just

370
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 1: keep this under my cap or do you want me

371
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: to do you want to hear about it? Anyway? And

372
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: you're telling me that Lebron went, no, you keep it

373
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: to yourself. I'm gonna go to dinner with my family.

374
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 2: I know, guys, guys, guys, Lebron is involved in the

375
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 2: NBA's decisions.

376
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 3: Understand this, just like Michael Jordan was.

377
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 2: When Michael Jordan orchestrated his sudden retirement to play minor

378
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 2: league baseball and then his return to the sport and

379
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 2: everything else, he was getting compensated from not just the Bulls.

380
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: He was getting compensated by the league, he was getting

381
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 2: compensated by the networks.

382
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,360
Speaker 3: He was of that kind of value. Now, I want

383
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 3: to say, Lebron, is.

384
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 2: That that stature, but the idea that you are now

385
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 2: looking at an end that's at the crossroads.

386
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 3: Their numbers have been down.

387
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 2: Your two biggest superstars are reaching the end, and that

388
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: would be Lebron and Steph. And so now the question

389
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 2: is how do we move forward. We need the Lakers

390
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 2: to be healthy. So the league's working with Lebron James. Right, Okay, Lebron,

391
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,199
Speaker 2: what are your plans? What are we looking at the future.

392
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 2: We need you to still be involved in this league.

393
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: I like to get an ownership. Okay, great, where you

394
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 2: might be interested. So we mentioned this whole Vegas thing. Yeah,

395
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:28,959
Speaker 2: but we got to take care of the Lakers.

396
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 1: Man.

397
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: The Lakers need to be good. We need I agree

398
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 2: with you, he knows. Hey, if I'm going to be

399
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 2: an owner in the NBA, the Lakers have to be relevant.

400
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: So let's make a deal. It'll make a deal.

401
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the Lakers can't afford this, and they can't

402
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 2: make this. Dunches, he goes, I'm telling you, Donches is me.

403
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 2: He has the same skill set as me. He can

404
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: be that dynamic and he's only twenty five. Make the

405
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 2: deal happen. And this is how this deal happened. I mean,

406
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 2: I can't I where is Adam Silver, Well, I is

407
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: Adam Silk.

408
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: You will be questioning about this because whenever there is

409
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: such a shocking trade, obviously this is going to be

410
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 1: approved by the League. You know, the commissioner's desk saw

411
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 1: this trade before, because like we know everything that the

412
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: ownership does.

413
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 3: Well, how do you justify approving this deal?

414
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 5: Why do we need Adam Silver to step Like, why

415
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 5: do you want Adam Silver to step in and be

416
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 5: a nanny?

417
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 2: Well, it's not a matter of that, but he is

418
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 2: the commissional League, and he will be questionable.

419
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 5: I mean the trade already went through. The MAVs announced it,

420
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 5: so it's it's approved, it's done.

421
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 2: Well, the league can step in and we've we've heard

422
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 2: deals done that have been undone.

423
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they were stern did it several times?

424
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 5: Actually, well thought they were officially announced.

425
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: No, No, I agree with that. It would be unprecedented,

426
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 1: much like this trade. I mean, this is the most

427
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: shock I just.

428
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 5: I think teams should be allowed to make bad decisions.

429
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: I well, there's no question, but they listen. Okay, you're

430
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: one hundred accurate. I agree with you. Teams should be

431
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: allowed to make best as it favors your team. You're right.

432
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean, and as long as the intent isn't in,

433
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: is in anti competition, is in collusion of some sort.

434
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: This is in a situation like, hey, Lakers, Brass, Polinka,

435
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: Genie Buss, whoever, we really want to suck and make

436
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: it so that our fan base hates us so badly

437
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: that we can uproot our team and move to a

438
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: different city. Like that would be nefarious. That would be

439
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 1: Malfeason's You know, you have the Lakers on the other

440
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 1: side going great, where do we sign?

441
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 5: I just feel like this if this wasn't not the

442
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 5: Lakers that the Mavericks went to and said, hey, do

443
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 5: you want to do this, it wouldn't be a big issue.

444
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 5: But because it's the Lakers, everybody's asking for things that.

445
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 2: Bo on the other side. That LISTA showed me on

446
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,360
Speaker 2: the Durant deal. I want you to read that off

447
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: on the other side. But first, but first let's find

448
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 2: out what is a trend?

449
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 6: That's it? Just that story.

450
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 2: So MANCEI, she's excited because now the Clippers are eight

451
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 2: and two with Kawhi in the court. Yep, So she's

452
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 2: not worried about the Lakers. They have no bigs right now,

453
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 2: short term, the Lakers don't look very good.

454
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 3: We don't even know when Luca's gonna play.

455
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,479
Speaker 7: Short term, and that's that's really how I looked at

456
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 7: it yesterday.

457
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 6: Immediately I text Carry Rhodes because he's a MAVs fan.

458
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and I just.

459
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 6: Was like, what is happening?

460
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 7: And I was texting Bow and I was like, this

461
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 7: is this trade is bringing out the best in Twitter.

462
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 6: What people were tweeting now was haul hilarious.

463
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 7: Yes, for hours and hours, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

464
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 6: I don't know, you're right.

465
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 7: Short term, it looks like maybe the MAVs got the

466
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 7: better side of it, like right now, But in the

467
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 7: long scheme of things, yes, Luka Doncic is the future

468
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 7: of basketball.

469
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 6: He can be the face and you put him with

470
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 6: the Lakers.

471
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 7: I mean, what a win win situation for the Lakers

472
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 7: in the grand scheme of things.

473
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 6: Now, we'll see what happens with all of that.

474
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 7: Apparently, you know, there was rumors that, oh, Lebron's now

475
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 7: gonna go to the Warriors.

476
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 6: And this is just the first step and getting rid

477
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 6: of him.

478
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 7: But Chris Hanes tweeted this morning and that no, Lebron

479
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 7: intends to remain a member of the Lakers past the

480

Speaker 7: February sixth trade deadlines. So we'll see if anything else happens.

481

Speaker 2: So you're talking if I was counting correctly there not

548
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 2: counting the first swaps at least eleven number one picks.

549
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 5: Thirteen picks totalsly yeah, Ten first rounders.

550

Speaker 2: All NBA going into this year at age twenty five

555
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 2: to ten. I mean this is again, where is the

556
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 2: commissioner to at least answer questions on how this is

557
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 2: feasible that this trade is approved?

558
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: Well?

559
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 7: Is it?

560
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 5: I just I don't think that we want to start

561
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 5: the slippery slope of having commissioners be like putting their

562
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 5: hands into league business like that.

563
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 2: You do understand there was these ted Sectian rule Yeah,

564
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 2: I understand that where he ended up training all these

565
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: you know, for future picks, and they actually.

566
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 5: See step can't Yeah, you can't shange the rules.

567
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: That's how the Lakers ended up with James Worthy is

568
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 2: the number one overall pick on a trade they had

569
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 2: made seven years before.

570
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 1: I just I don't know.

571
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 5: Like so back in twenty twenty when the Rams traded

572
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 5: for Matt Stafford, if the Niners had an issue with that,

573
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 5: they should have complained to the commissioner and Goodell should

574
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 5: have stepped in to stop it.

575
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, look at it again. There is a long history,

576
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 2: and look at it. You're taking it from a guy

577
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 2: that's been around the lakes.

578
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: Whatever.

579
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 3: But the Lakers have gotten favorable deals time after time.

580
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Lakers aren't the only team, though.

581
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 2: They are by far the biggest beneficiary of one sided

582
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 2: deals in the history.

583
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: Of the NBA.

584
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 5: I would argue there's there's not been a bigger beneficiarya

585
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 5: of luck and deals than the Golden State Warriors adding

586
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 5: Kevin Durant to a team that won two games or

587
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,479
Speaker 5: whatever it was, or seventy three games.

588
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 3: But they didn't even need him.

589
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 5: Well, but they added him because they got lucky.

590
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: We should investigate what that trade deal looked like, I mean,

591
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: or did he know?

592
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 5: It's because it's because Steph got hurt early enough in

593
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 5: his career that they could sign him for cheaper and then,

594
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 5: because I believe it was because of the lockout, the

595
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 5: cap smoothed just enough in that offseason for them to fill. Hey,

596
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 5: that happens.

597
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: It was like a two hour wish.

598
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 5: Should we investigate the Clippers for collusion when they got

599
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 5: Paul George and.

600
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: Hang on a second, Hang on a second though that

601
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: that Durant was a free agent sign Yeah he.

602
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 5: Was, but they still they still lucked into the rules

603
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 5: changing enough for them to get him.

604
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: That feels lucky. The Lakers could also just be lucky.

605
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, I.

606
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 5: Think I think part of it too, Like NBA GM's

607
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 5: are so obsessed with this idea of flexibility and having

608
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 5: as many picks as they can get that they're then

609
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 5: scared to do anything with them. Like the thunder have

610
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 5: had all these picks for decades or you know, for

611
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 5: a decade now they've they've had all these picks that

612
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 5: they haven't turned into anything yet.

613
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 3: Really, how are they doing right now?

614
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 5: They're the top seed in the West, But have they

615
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 5: won anything?

616
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: I will give you an example. What do you say

617
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 2: they haven't done anything? They went from the bottom feeders.

618
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 5: But have they won the championship?

619
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: Well, not yet yet.

620
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 3: Abslutely one of the favorites this year either.

621
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 5: But they could have traded some of those picks that

622
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 5: he's stockpiled to.

623
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: Give you example bough of kind of what you're saying, right, So, yes,

624
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: if it were a different team, we'd probably feel differently

625
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: about this, the Deshaun Watson trade. To use a different sport,

626
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson was available for hire. He hadn't played because

627
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: of all, you know, what was unraveling about him in

628
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,479
Speaker 1: his personal life, but he was the bell of the

629
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: ball for that offseason. If you remember, all these different

630
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: teams were, you know, vying for a trade package with

631
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans for his services, and their assumption, whoever

632
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: was going to win this sweepstakes was going to have

633
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. Right, that

634
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 1: was the assumption at the time. I know it has

635
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: worked out very differently for Cleveland and for Deshaun Watson

636
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 1: in the aftermath, but that was the thought process. So

637
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns not only trade is it two first

638
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: rounders to the Houston Texans for Deshaun Watson, which now

639
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,239
Speaker 1: looks like Houston won the deal hands down because of

640
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: how bad Deshaun Watson has played on the other side

641
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: of it. Plus they gave him that guaranteed contract, and

642
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: then you look at what Houston has turned it into.

643
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 4: C J.

644
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: Stroud will Anderson Junior out of Alabama, who's been one

645
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 1: of the better.

646
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 2: Defensives Enerjet for a second. Ere the reason they gave

647
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 2: up so much as there was competition for the.

648
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 1: Services at Shan Watson.

649
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 2: Right now, all Wes seem to know about this deal

650
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 2: was is that the Mavericks call the Lakers say are

651
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 2: you interested in Luka Doncic? I mean, if there had

652
00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 2: been any hint that Luca was on the market, you

653
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: don't think a guy like Shams would have known about it.

654
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 2: You don't think anybody would report the idea that, believe

655
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,959
Speaker 2: it or not, Luka Doncic is on the market.

656
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 3: That never happened.

657
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: So this was one call by the.

658
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 2: Mavericks to the Lakers saying are you interested in Luka Doncic?

659
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 3: And a deal was done just like that. Yep, this

660
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 3: is what we have.

661
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 1: A notion that Doncic had provided the Dallas Mavericks the

662
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: runway to move on from him, in part because it

663
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: was way too as one as one can graciously exit

664
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: Dallas by allowing them to get something in return for him.

665
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: So he apparently started the conversation why the Lakers?

666
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 2: Why would if you would if you had put Luka

667
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 2: Doncic on the open market to the highest bidder, which

668
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 2: is what normally a team would do. If you're trying

669
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 2: to get rid of a superstar in the prime of

670
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 2: his career, you would put him out on the open

671
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 2: market and see how much.

672
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: You can get. And they didn't do that.

673
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 2: I mean, they just wanted to specifically call the Lakers.

674
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 3: And say, can you give us Anthony Davis?

675
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: Oh? Sure? Is it?

676
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 5: It's either collision with the Lakers to get them a

677
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 5: superstar or Nico Harrison is a bad GM, and which

678
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 5: one is more likely?

679
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: I would I would argue. I would argue this.

680
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 5: Because do you remember what his first move was as

681
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 5: the MAVs GM.

682
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: I do not.

683
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 5: It was letting Jalen Brunson walk for nothing.

684
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: All right, Listen, he could be a bad GM and

685
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: when he was when he was an executive with Nike. Okay,

686
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: who pays him? Adelson?

687
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: Okay, so he is doing what Addelson is telling him

688
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 2: to do.

689
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 1: Yes, that's what I was good.

690
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,760
Speaker 5: I think that the MAVs had no intention of paying

691
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 5: him the super Max money.

692
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: Right, so they're five years Serena four.

693
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 5: We're doing everything they can as they send him out

694
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 5: of town to make it look hold the thought.

695
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 1: Are we are? We all like under the spell that

696
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: never in the history of the NBA have things been

697
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: promised either to a coach who obviously is under contract

698
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 1: with an ownership. There's no union that represents coaches, or

699
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: that a general manager who is a part of the

700
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: front office has never been told explicitly this never leaves

701
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 1: this room. But dot dot dot, how much gone on?

702
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: Suck this year and the years to follow, So we

703
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: can we can make it so we can move on

704
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: from this hell hole we consider a city, So we

705
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: can we can move our team to a different market.

706
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,720
Speaker 1: Because we've seen this time and time again, and every

707
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: single time it happens, we know on the outside what's happening. Oh,

708
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 1: this team's tanking for a draft pick. Oh, this team's

709
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: tanking because they they're they're they want a new stadium

710
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: and they're threatening to move. Oh, this team's doing this

711
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,240
Speaker 1: and it seems so obvious. But everybody on the outside

712
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: of the ropes is making assumptions and everybody on the

713
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: inside of the ropes is saying, we would never do

714
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: that to our fans. We love loves Vegas, I mean Dallas.

715
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 5: They're trying to do. They're trying to do a reverse

716
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 5: Major League. They're trying to do a Major League right

717
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 5: where they just stink and they moved to Vegas. But

718
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 5: they Nico Harrison is such a bad GM. He messed

719
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 5: up and got a good player.

720
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 2: Now he's a great because he's doing exactly what the

721
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,879
Speaker 2: owners telling to do. Yeah, how was it amazing that

722
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 2: the San Antonio Spurs pulled an inside straight to get

723
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,720
Speaker 2: Wemby on their team? Remember that one pulled an inside straight?

724
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 2: How did that possibly happen? All right, we'll continue on

725
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 2: with this, and yes, we are going to beginning our

726
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 2: breakdown of the matchup, and it's going to be a

727
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,720
Speaker 2: very interesting matchup. In fact, I've got some very interesting

728
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 2: thoughts myself about who's going to actually win that game

729
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 2: coming up a week from today, we'll break it all

730
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 2: down here on Fox Football Sunday.

731
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: Steve Harbin and a Rich Armurger.

732
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday, we live from the Ti rag dot

733
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: Com studios. I know we haven't talked any football yet

734
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 2: we will. I promise you that, no doubt. But there

735
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 2: are so many unanswered questions. I mean, we could go

736
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 2: all day on this doncic Ad trade, but they're just

737
00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 2: everyone's digesting it. You know, happens late on a Saturday night.

738
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 2: By the way, if you're Schams, yeah and you got this, okay, okay,

739
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 2: kid me. First of all, a trade of this magnitude.

740
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: The idea that there wasn't a hint of this deal,

741
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 2: not a hint of this deal. Something just everybody that's

742
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 2: directly involved in this, including Chams, something doesn't smell right here.

743
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 3: There's no way a deal like this.

744
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 2: You know how many NBA insiders there are that are

745
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 2: literally on the phone or on notice twenty four to seven,

746
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 2: and not a single one, not one had even a

747
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: hint of this deal. Only Chams had that deal.

748
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 5: Do you think that woj was looking at his phone

749
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 5: like the green Goblin mask, like just one more time.

750
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, one more Like in his office

751
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 1: somewhere at Saint Joe's just thinking to himself.

752
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 2: Like, okay, I must crush so the idea one more.

753
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 1: Bumb So you know, Lebron.

754
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 2: Had no clue. Nobody had a clue. No, no team

755
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 2: in the league hurt anything. Honestly, I there's going to

756
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 2: be an investigation, and there should be.

757
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: I've watched Lebron James read chapter books in the Lakers

758
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: dressing room. I've watched him you know where, He's on

759
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,959
Speaker 1: the last page, very clearly finishing up a long book.

760
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: And then when questioned about reading the book, they say like, hey, so,

761
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: what was your favorite part of the book. He was like,

762
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: you know, all of it. Honestly, if I were to

763
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: pick one chapter, I would be doing disservice to the author.

764
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 5: Didn't really like the way the cat in the Hat

765
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 5: was so many to those kids.

766
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: I remember one time they asked him what his favorite

767
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: movie was, and he said, without hesitation, The Godfather. And

768
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: they said, what's your favorite line from the movie The Godfather?

769
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: And he went, gosh, all of them, all of them, okay,

770
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: And I mean, and you know, I mean so like

771
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: I mean, and I believe him because you know me too,

772
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: being a Godfather fan. I mean, I'm afraid, oh, Michael Corlin,

773
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: I mean, you could go anybody, any anybody in that movie.

774
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: Everything's quotable. So I trust Lebron. I trust Lebron. There

775
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 1: I hold his word to the highest regard in terms

776
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: of trustworthiness. If he says that he was having a

777
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: delicious spaghetti dinner in the city of New York and

778
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:41,320
Speaker 1: and and he was completely unaware that his teammate Anthony

779
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: Davis was being traded for Luka Doncic. Yeah I believe.

780
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, no one does, and uh no one does,

781
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 2: and no one believes that Cham's was somehow just miraculously

782
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 2: fell into this story with not a single basketball insider

783
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 2: having any knowledge. We're we got to turn our attention

784
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 2: to the big game. This is Fox Football Sunday, rolling

Speaker 2: So if anything else happens about this deal in the NBA,

Speaker 2: and you know what I'm talking about, we'll update you.

794
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 2: But he this show here is Fox Football Sunday. And

795
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: last time I checked my calendar, we are exactly seven

796
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 2: days away from kickoff of Super Bowl fifty nine, the

797
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 2: rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.

798
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of rematches, so this is the

799
00:40:53,840 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 2: ninth time that two different franchises have had rematches in

800
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 2: Super Bowls. Not necessary obviously back to back years, but rematches.

801
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 2: Only two teams have ever faced each other three times.

802
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 1: Interesting, two teams have faced each other three times in

803
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl three times in a Super Bowl. It's

804
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 1: got to be Patriots Giants was twice.

805
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 2: Oh man, there's only one time that two teams have

806
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 2: faced each other three times in the Super Bowl.

807
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: Steelers and Steelers. Packers, No, who, Steelers who? Cowboys? Oh,

808
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys Cowboys twice in the Tom Landry era. Yeah, yea,

809
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 1: you know later when Yeah.

810
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,400
Speaker 2: So that's the only three. But here's here's the interesting

811
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 2: thing about this. So for the last five times we've

812
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 2: had a rematch, the team that won the first game

813
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 2: also won the second game.

814
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 3: The one exception the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles.

815
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 3: Patriots beat the Eagles back when Andy Reid was the coach,

816
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 3: and then in the rematch, of course, Doug Peterson and

817
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 3: Nick Foles led the Eagles to the victory over.

818
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 2: The New England Patriots. And why is that significant? Well,

819
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 2: here here's my thought. Obviously we're going to do a

820
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 2: lot of breaking down as far as a lot of

821
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 2: the technical stuff and everything else, but.

822
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 3: Here here's just there's a reason why.

823
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 2: No team has won three straight Super Bowls. Winning won

824
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 2: Super Bowl is tough enough. The idea of winning back

825
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 2: to back Super Bowls is it's almost unfathomable. Eight teams

826
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 2: had done it before, none of which had ever actually

827
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 2: made it back to the Super Bowls the first time

828
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 2: ever teams won back to back Super Bowls and then

829
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 2: been in the Super Bowl with an opportunity win three

830
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 2: straight Super Bowls. But it is a long haul and

831
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 2: you need a lot of breaks. And one thing we

832
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,440
Speaker 2: have seen about the Kansas City Chiefs, this current edition

833
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: of the Chiefs, I believe they have now won seventeen

834
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 2: consecutive one score games. We'll just think about that for

835
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 2: a second. Okay, this is an all time NFL record,

836
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:20,880
Speaker 2: including the postseason, seventeen consecutive one score games. I mean,

837
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 2: when you think about it, if you look at one

838
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 2: score games, it predictably is like flipping a coin heads

839
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 2: or tails.

840
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:30,839
Speaker 3: It's a fifty to fifty proposition.

841
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 2: So it's the equivalent of flipping a coin seventeen straight

842
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 2: times and correctly predicting the outcome. That's how unreal this

843
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 2: streak is for the Chiefs.

844
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: In one score games.

845
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 2: Even think what happened in the Super Bowl two years ago, right, yep,

846
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 2: you remember how that played out. The Eagles came down,

847
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: tied the game, got the two point conversion to tie

848
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 2: it up, and then the Chiefs I think there was

849
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 2: like four minutes left, but they ran the whole all

850
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 2: clock down. There was that incredible Every time that Patrick

851
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,959
Speaker 2: Mahomes scrambles, it's always like the biggest scramble over right,

852
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 2: he just goes right up the middle, takes the knee,

853
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,399
Speaker 2: and they just ran out the clock, kicked the last

854
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 2: second field go game over.

855
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 3: My gut feeling is this time is run out on

856
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:20,240
Speaker 3: the Chiefs.

857
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 2: The reality is, if we break down these rosters, you

858
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 2: have an Eagles team that was number one in the

859
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 2: league in total defense, number one in the league in

860
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 2: passing defense. They have the best running back in the league,

861
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 2: and they have a team of veterans who've been in

862
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. So it's not like, Wow, never been

863
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 2: here before. It's you know, they've all been there, including

864
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 2: their quarterback. So on paper at least, I won't figure

865
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 2: it out as we go, but on paper at least

866
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 2: there is a significant advantage. I believe in talent on

867
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 2: both sides of the football, favoring the Philadelphia Eagles in

868
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:01,879
Speaker 2: Super Bowl fifty nine.

869
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with everything you've said. I think that

870
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are a better prepared situational football team than

871
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 1: most teams in the NFL. However, they are facing an

872
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: opponent with a better roster overall, except for one key piece,

873
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: maybe two key pieces, and one obviously more important than

874
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: the other. First key piece your quarterback. The Chiefs have

875
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: the better quarterback. All those clutch stats that you just reviewed,

876
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: winning games between one and eight points behind in the

877
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: fourth quarter in overtime, the percentage of wins that Patrick

878
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: Maholmes has in those situations is absurd. He is inarguably

879
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: one of the most clutch players we've ever seen in

880
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: sports history at the professional level. He's unbelievably calculated and

881
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: he can execute in those moments. But also they have

882
00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: Andy Reid, and in my opinion, over the years, he

883
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: has developed into one of the better situational coaches in

884
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: the NFL. Nick Sirianni's patrolling the opposite sideline. Coach and

885
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 1: quarterback are a pairing that you cannot overlook. And if

886
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: you go back through the history of Super Bowl winners,

887
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,440
Speaker 1: especially teams who have had long standing success in the

888
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: postseason and the Super Bowl, I mean, it works really

889
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: well when you start when you start to look at

890
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: that coach quarterback comparison or that pairing. You know, look

891
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:34,919
Speaker 1: at Brady and Belichick, look at the Dallas Cowboys, look

892
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: at the Montana Walsh era, you know, Reid and Mahomes.

893
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 1: That is the biggest reason why I still throw my Yes,

894
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 1: it's hard to three peat, but I still throw my

895
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: support behind the Kansas City Chiefs. It's undeniable. Well, and

896
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna deny that.

897
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 2: And I would say this, Betty against the Chiefs, do

898
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 2: it at your own risk.

899
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:57,919
Speaker 1: I mean, here was the thing.

900
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,879
Speaker 2: When you watch that AFC Championship game, we just saw

901
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 2: it was a close game throughout, but you never got

902
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 2: a sense that the Bills thought.

903
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 3: They were gonna win the game.

904
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, you always got a sense from the Bills standpoint that, yeah,

905
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,760
Speaker 2: it just seemed like, all right, we're hanging in there.

906
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 1: Think about this stat. Someone gave me.

907
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 2: The stat about teams that had scored at least four

908
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 2: touchdowns with no turnovers were something like fifteen and two

909
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. The two losses were both the Bills

910
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 2: at KC. The Bills scored the only turnover the game

911
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,439
Speaker 2: was that Patrick Mahomes fumble. So no turnovers, you scored

912
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 2: at least four touchdowns, and you lose the game. And

913
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 2: so there's an inevitability that I just felt that the

914
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,240
Speaker 2: whole game of the Bills, like all right, we're making

915
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 2: it close, we're keeping we're staying in this game, but

916
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 2: we're gonna.

917
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 1: Lose this game.

918
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 3: They're they're just gonna find a way.

919
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,400
Speaker 1: This is why. And I agree with the whole hardly

920
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: at the top.

921
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 2: The idea of conspiracy theories and all this are a

922
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 2: complete mockery. But if you are a believer in conspiracy theories,

923
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 2: it's easy to justify that belief based on how the

924
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 2: Chiefs have time and again, certainly the last couple of years,

925
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 2: whether it's the fault of their opponent or making some

926
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 2: miraculous play on their own, they always seemingly come out

927
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 2: on top.

928
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: All right, So the Chiefs have gone eleven straight playoff

929
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 1: games without committing more penalties than our opponents. That is

930
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 1: the longest streak of any team in the NFL.

931
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 3: In officiating. Who calls the penalties?

932
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: Who calls the penalties? The officials? Right? Yeah, Now, that

933
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,840
Speaker 1: is obviously no fault of the Chiefs that they've had

934
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,440
Speaker 1: this streak of luck if you want to call it that,

935
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 1: or potentially have gotten favor from certain crews. There's no

936
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,959
Speaker 1: questioning that it's not their fault. What I will say

937
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: is the fault of one or the other side on

938
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 1: the playing field in terms of the opponents. How about

939
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: the opponent for not capitalizing on some of the mistakes? Oh,

940
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 1: and here's why, because the Chiefs don't make a lot

941
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 1: of them in important games. It is rare to see

942
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 1: the Chiefs make more mistakes than their opponent. That's the

943
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: reason why they've been so successful. There are now comparisons

944
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: being drawn between Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady, and they're saying, look,

945
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,720
Speaker 1: how many more calls Patrick Mahomes gets than Tom Brady

946
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 1: did during the Patriots two decade long dynasty. It's like

947
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:32,280
Speaker 1: revisionist history, though, because when I was in New England

948
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: and I was playing for the Patriots, everybody hated the

949
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 1: Patriots because the Patriots always got all the calls and

950
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,719
Speaker 1: they cheated twice. And I can't tell you how many

951
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,720
Speaker 1: times I grew up in New York, I was drafted

952
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: as a New England Patriots player, and half of my

953
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,200
Speaker 1: friends and family were like, look, we love you and

954
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,360
Speaker 1: we'll always root for you, but we hate the Pats,

955
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 1: So screw your team. We hope that you guys lose

956
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:59,000
Speaker 1: every game. Like people hated, like viscerally hated the Patriots.

957
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,720
Speaker 1: And oh, they're looking at the past with these rose

958
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 1: colored glasses on saying Brady didn't get all these roughing

959
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:11,399
Speaker 1: the passer calls BS baloney. I remember everybody complaining about

960
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 1: that back then. And you want to know why, Well,

961
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 1: it's because when the Patriots were good, just like the

962
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 1: Chiefs are right now, when you made a mistake against

963
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,880
Speaker 1: the Patriots, they made you pay for it. Like so,

964
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: if you cost yourself fifteen yards on a questionable roughing

965
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: the passer call, guess what the Patriots were scoring. They

966
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: were finishing with the ball in the end zone. Same

967
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 1: thing with the Kansas City Chiefs. Not to say that

968
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: they haven't had good luck. They have the statistics work

969
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: out where they are on a thirty year streak of

970
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 1: having more consecutive playoff games with with less penalties than

971
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: their opponents. There's no question that luck has played a

972
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: role or potentially some favoritism by certain officiating crews. Do

973
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: I think it's a conspiracy. No, I don't think the

974
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 1: NFL is conspiring to make Kansas City the bell of

975
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:01,719
Speaker 1: the ball. Do I think the Chiefs are a better

976
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: prepared team with a better quarterback than every other single

977
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 1: team in the NFL right now? The answer is one

978
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,200
Speaker 1: hundred percent Yes, Well, I would equate it to this.

979
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:19,399
Speaker 1: So does the best looking girl in the room get

980
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 1: the most attention?

981
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 2: Almost always, almost always right, whether deserved or not, just

982
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 2: based on appearance. And so when you are the New

983
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 2: England Patriots back in the day or the current Kansas

984
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:35,240
Speaker 2: City Chiefs, you're the best looking woman in the world, Steve,

985
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 2: you and I are boxing fans, right and from what

986
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,319
Speaker 2: I say, but this is part of the idea. The

987
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 2: idea is is that when we talk about the officials,

988
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 2: it's almost human nature to subconsciously favor the best looking person.

989
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: In the room. Yep, yep, that's pretty much what happens.

990
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,879
Speaker 2: It may not be a conscious decision, but it's sort

991
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 2: of a subconscious decision.

992
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 1: Popularity, you know, it breeds favorite, there's no question about it.

993
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: So you're right. Human nature does play role in this.

994
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: And guess what, this is a very human subjective sport

995
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,279
Speaker 1: to call because most of the penalties being called are

996
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: subjective pass interference holding, roughing the pass, or offensive or

997
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,360
Speaker 1: defensive holding. By the way, I mean, there are so

998
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 1: few like black and white, you know, over the line

999
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 1: without subjectivity calls that you can make through a question you.

1000
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 2: Talk about this, Yeah, do you feel like in your

1001
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 2: time in the New England Patriots you got more favorable

1002
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 2: treatment than officials than when you were with the Arizona Cardinals.

1003
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 1: I would, I would say, God, and not.

1004
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 2: Only you, but your your linemates as well. Now you

1005
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 2: felt like when you got to Arizona, a really bad

1006
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 2: team that one year after leaving the Patriots, that seem

1007
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 2: like things that we might have gotten away with as

1008
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:55,279
Speaker 2: a group in New England. They were not giving Arizona

1009
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,799
Speaker 2: the same favoritists. If I'm answering, honestly, I would answer no,

1010
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,879
Speaker 2: I didn't notice. I swear I didn't notice. Whether it's

1011
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:07,360
Speaker 2: better or worse. I promise you that's that's an honest answer.

1012
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,120
Speaker 2: What I will say is this, we're both boxing fans,

1013
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 2: and in boxing, you give a tie to the champion.

1014
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Always. I mean went a lot of those. If

1015
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 1: you're a contender. If you're a contender, you better beat

1016
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 1: the champ. You better beat the champ, knock out the champ,

1017
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: leave no stone unturned, be undeniably the best, and you

1018
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 1: get the belt. That is what the rest of the

1019
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: NFL is up against when they play the Kansas City Chiefs.

1020
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 1: You got to beat the Chiefs. And guess what the

1021
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 1: team just lost to them in the AFC championship game.

1022
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 1: They had the secret sauce in the regular season. They

1023
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: could not replicate it in the championship game. But that's

1024
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 1: where great teams shine.

1025
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 2: They kept it close, which was a sure recipe to lose.

1026
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,200
Speaker 2: That's what happened to the Buffalo Bills.

1027
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:52,439
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1028
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,799
Speaker 2: On the other side, if you are frantically looking for

1029
00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 2: a reason why the Chiefs will not win this game,

1030
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 2: unfortunately I have more bad news for you.

1031
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 3: We'll explain. This is Fox Football Sunday.

1032
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:09,040
Speaker 1: Steve Harvin and rich Ronberger. Here Fox Football Sunday.

1033
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 2: We are live from the tire rack dot Com studios.

1034
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 2: By the way, updating on the aftermath of the Luka

1035
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 2: Doncic Anthony Davis trade, It's now being reported that Lebron

1036
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,880
Speaker 2: James intends on staying with the Lakers.

1037
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: That's a that's a really that's big.

1038
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 2: Breaking news, breaking news. Yeah, I mean I like that

1039
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 2: breaking news. Lebron says he will stay with the Lakers. Wow, wow, Wow,

1040
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,240
Speaker 2: whoa caught me off guard with that one.

1041
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,360
Speaker 1: Where were you when you heard that Lebron said he

1042
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: was gonna stay.

1043
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 5: The Lakers also have made the trade official, so Luka

1044
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,800
Speaker 5: Don is officially a Laker. He's wearing number seventy seven.

1045
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,840
Speaker 2: I saw the pictures of the seventy seven, and we

1046
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 2: have no idea when he's gonna know.

1047
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 5: But MAVs GM Nico Harrison did speak prior to the

1048
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 5: MAVs game today. He said that Luca gave no indication

1049
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,400
Speaker 5: that he wanted out or wouldn't sign an extension moving forward,

1050
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 5: and that the Lakers were the only team that he

1051
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 5: talked to.

1052
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had he didn't have a no trade in

1053
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: his deal.

1054
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 5: I don't think. I think only Lebron and Bradley Beal

1055
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 5: have no trades in the NBA. Really yeah, I don't

1056
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 5: think there's that many no trade.

1057
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 1: Cancers in the NBA. Interesting. What is so fascinating about

1058
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 1: all this is we will will never know exactly why

1059
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:31,240
Speaker 1: or how this deal came together, because nobody will admit

1060
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:35,080
Speaker 1: one hundred percent why this happened. Because if the most

1061
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 1: logical conclusion is that the Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks

1062
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 1: mutually discussed behind closed doors, and I'm talking about some

1063
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 1: of the highest of the highest ups, how this would

1064
00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 1: benefit themselves, either on the short term or into the future.

1065
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:56,279
Speaker 1: More looking forward into the future, and much to the

1066
00:55:56,400 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 1: chagrin of Dallas Mavericks fans, I would say, I would say,

1067
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,280
Speaker 1: we'll never really know what happened.

1068
00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 5: That is the I do feel really bad for Mavericks fans. Uh,

1069
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 5: they are very rightfully pissed off at their franchise. But

1070
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,760
Speaker 5: but but if you see the pictures at the outside

1071
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 5: of their arena today, well, like.

1072
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,960
Speaker 2: Kenny, if you're gonna trade Luka Doncic, you're gonna you're

1073
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 2: gonna have everybody out there competing.

1074
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,919
Speaker 3: And you're gonna get ten number ones you're gonna get.

1075
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:25,239
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1076
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:30,320
Speaker 2: Think about the Hall that OKC got for Paul George,

1077
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 2: the speculation, the clip like this is Shade Gills. All

1078
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 2: those number one picks, I mean those are all nice

1079
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 2: pick I do think that we are kind of underrating

1080
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis a little bit here.

1081
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 3: He's thirty one years old and.

1082
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,280
Speaker 5: He's a he's a top ten player in the NBA.

1083
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,400
Speaker 3: How much longer is he gonna be around?

1084
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:49,319
Speaker 5: Do you think I do you think the MAVs care

1085
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 5: about that? If the pair of Kyrie and Ad carry

1086
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:53,800
Speaker 5: them on a long playoff run, get to the finals.

1087
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,319
Speaker 1: Okay, if they win a championship this year. This is

1088
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 1: what I was gonna say, is so like, we'll never

1089
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,320
Speaker 1: know the exact how or why, right, but the closest

1090
00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: we'll get to having a reasonable explanation if we're not

1091
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 1: going to believe that there was any conclusion or collusion,

1092
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: that we're not going to believe that this was in

1093
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 1: some nefarious intentions. If the Dallas Mavericks end up getting

1094
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 1: back to the finals and winning it, we'll say, Okay,

1095
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,200
Speaker 1: what they were doing is in maybe a little bit

1096
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 1: of a short sighted way, sacrificing the future for sure,

1097
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,320
Speaker 1: short term gain. They were trying to get it all

1098
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: together while they felt the iron was the hottest to strike.

1099
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 1: And you know what, as it turns out, they made

1100
00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 1: a good decision on that front, and they'll deal with

1101
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 1: the fallout in the future. Okay, So you could make

1102
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 1: that argument, and if it all works out that way,

1103
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 1: maybe that's a worthy argument. More likely, Anthony Davis is

1104
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 1: pissed that he is in Dallas right now. Luka, Doncic

1105
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,440
Speaker 1: is happy that he's in La because I think he

1106
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 1: was catching a lot of flak from this organization about,

1107
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, the way he's comported himself in the offseason

1108
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 1: and things like that. And he's playing with inarguably the

1109
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 1: biggest star still in the NBA and Lebron James playing

1110
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 1: in the second biggest market in the country where he'll

1111
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 1: make more money marketing wise than he ever has in Dallas.

1112
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 1: Like so, Lucas very happy, Lebron's happy. So the only

1113
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 1: person who really loses out on this trade is Anthony Davison.

1114
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 1: The fans. Yeah.

1115
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 5: February February twenty fifth, the Lakers play the Mavericks here

1116
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 5: at a crypto or stables.

1117
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: Everyone to call it I don't think there's gonna be

1118
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 1: a lot of smiles.

1119
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 5: I have a feeling that might be a fifty to

1120
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,920
Speaker 5: twenty game from Anthony Davis that'll be well earned.

1121
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,280
Speaker 1: By the way, he won't be that upset.

1122
00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 2: The last year of his deal that he has right

1123
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 2: now will pay him sixty six million dollars the last.

1124
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 1: Year of that deal. How is he ever going to

1125
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: I mean, how are you going to survive on that

1126
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:42,800
Speaker 1: kind of money? Understand? All right?

1127
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 2: Getting back to football for a moment here now, This

1128
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 2: could be a very distressing stat if you are hoping

1129
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 2: that the Kansas City Chiefs are going to be defeated

1130
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 2: in Super Bowl fifty nine.

1131
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 3: Oh boy, this is this is not a good stat.

1132
00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: You're about to break a lot of hearts.

1133
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 2: So Vic Fanji, the defensive coordinator of the Eagles, longtime

1134
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 2: defensive coordinator in the NFL. As a coordinator, his record

1135
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,960
Speaker 2: against Patrick Mahomes is ohn eight.

1136
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: Eight.

1137
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 2: So yes, Mahomes is eight and oher against Vic Fangio defenses.

1138
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 1: All right, all right, so I want look at it.

1139
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 2: As I said, the Eagles had the number one total

1140
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 2: defense in the NFL this year, number one passing defense

1141
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Now, if you look back at the

1142
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:41,120
Speaker 2: teams that had the best success against Tom Brady, the

1143
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 2: two wins by the Giants to win by the Eagles

1144
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 2: in both those games, all three of those games, teams

1145
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,120
Speaker 2: were able to get him a little bit off the mark,

1146
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,920
Speaker 2: you know, by putting pressure up the middle, you know,

1147
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:57,439
Speaker 2: getting him uncomfortable. Sure, so, Vic Fangio has seen enough.

1148
00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure of Patrick Mahomes climbing and how many times

1149
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 2: do we watch the Chiefs where he takes off on

1150
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:03,919
Speaker 2: a run.

1151
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: You're like, why weren't you spine on him?

1152
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 2: Or you know, Travis Kelsey is wide open, Like are

1153
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,960
Speaker 2: you kidding me? How are you allowing Kelsey to be

1154
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:16,840
Speaker 2: wide open? No one knows defense in the NFL better

1155
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 2: than Vic Fangio. I mean, he's been around this game forever.

1156
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:25,120
Speaker 2: He has prepared many times to face off against Patrick Mahomes.

1157
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 2: So you've got to come up with a wrinkle in

1158
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 2: your defense that they can't obviously see in your tendencies

1159
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 2: that you've been doing this year with the Eagles. What

1160
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:38,919
Speaker 2: do you think Vic Fangio has up his sleeve, Because

1161
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 2: you've got to come up with something to figure out a.

1162
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: Way to beat Patrick Mahomes. All right, I'm going to

1163
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,960
Speaker 1: give you about a sixty second dire tribe on what

1164
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: makes Patrick Mahomes so difficult to defend. So, Patrick Mahomes

1165
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: has an understanding of a multitude of things, but most importantly,

1166
01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 1: what the defense is doing to him. Whatever picture you

1167
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 1: present to him pre snap, he has a plan for

1168
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 1: an answer to the question you're posing whatever shift made

1169
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 1: post snap, or if you're gonna spin the defense. You know,

1170
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 1: a lot of times what you'll see when defense are

1171
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,959
Speaker 1: trying to disguise things is coverage more favoring one side

1172
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: of the field. It looks like they're gonna blitz off

1173
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 1: the offense is right, and then all of a sudden,

1174
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,120
Speaker 1: the coverage spins to the left side of the field

1175
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,840
Speaker 1: to cover up some of the problems that'll present for

1176
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: coverage to that side. As they're bringing a corner blitz

1177
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:31,800
Speaker 1: or something like that. You'll see all those things. Those

1178
01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 1: pictures happen really quickly. They're happening in real time. But

1179
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 1: the problem with defending Patrick Mahomes is he knows it's

1180
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 1: going to happen. He knows your tendencies. He understands how

1181
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: to protect against those things, whether he is going to

1182
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 1: shift his pass protection to take care of the problems,

1183
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:50,840
Speaker 1: or he's gonna know the hot receiver to get the

1184
01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,440
Speaker 1: ball too fast to defeat the blitz. Now, if you

1185
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 1: want to play coverage against him and play a two

1186
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: deep or three deep shell, he's going to pepper the

1187
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 1: ball underneath to his running back, his tight ends like

1188
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 1: Gray and Kelsey, Or he's going to find his receivers

1189
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 1: on short routes or crossing routes over the middle. He's

1190
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:08,880
Speaker 1: going to throw it to the voidts in the zones.

1191
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 1: If you play man defense against him, he is going

1192
01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 1: to find the mismatches. He's going to find Travis Kelcey

1193
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,640
Speaker 1: with a linebacker who has no business covering Travis Kelcey,

1194
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:20,440
Speaker 1: and that's how he gets so open. Or he is

1195
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 1: going to find a way to motion or shift a

1196
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 1: receiver so he has a favorable matchup against a weaker

1197
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 1: coverage player. It is impossible to defend quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes,

1198
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 1: like Peyton Manning, like Tom Brady, like Drew Brees, who

1199
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: study this game at a savant level to the point

1200
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 1: where you cannot accurately call defense against them to surprise them,

1201
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 1: because they are unsurprisable. So Vic Fango the reason why

1202
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 1: he's zero to eight as a defensive coordinator against Patrick

1203
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: Mahomes is because Patrick Mahomes may spend as much time

1204
01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 1: in front of the film as Vic Fangio, maybe more.

1205
01:02:57,880 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 2: Well, that's why he's got to come up with something

1206
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 2: kind to see in the film.

1207
01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:03,840
Speaker 1: It is got to figure it out. But you gotta

1208
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 1: do that without stressing your own defense, because if you

1209
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,480
Speaker 1: have the intelligence on your defense to get what you

1210
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 1: just said done, Steven, you have two weeks to get

1211
01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:15,040
Speaker 1: that done, to get that installed in your defense. Something

1212
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: you've never run. Something little wrinkle, that's all you need.

1213
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 1: So you need a lot more than a little rakle. Okay,

1214
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 1: let's find out what's trending right now.

1215
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 2: Let's see if there's more breaking news like lebron is

1216
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 2: staying with the Lakers.

1217
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I love it too. They gave credit to

1218
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 3: somebody who had.

1219
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: It first, right, you know, it's like, wow, know what

1220
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 1: that's the voice of Manzy Bonios. But as I know, my.

1221
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:40,760

01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 6: Unbelievable, Oh my pleasure. Guys. Let's kick off Sunday in

1224
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 6: a good way. You know what I'm saying.

1225
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:53,480
Speaker 7: So, Uh, Nico Harrison and Jason Kidd are holding a

1226
01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:57,040
Speaker 7: press conference right now as we speak because of this trade.

1227
01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,680
Speaker 6: I have a quick little SoundBite that I'm going to play.

1228
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 7: This is GM Nico Harrison asking about like this, this

1229
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 7: big trade.

1230
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 6: Can you guys hear it? Give me a second, Give

1231
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,440
Speaker 6: you a second. It's just happening right now.

1232
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 1: Give me, yes, hold on, hold on.

1233
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:18,800
Speaker 6: I got it, I got it. I know that Ian

1234
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 6: is pulling it right now. So it's literally happening as

1235
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 6: we speak.

1236
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 7: So I'm trying to huh, it's common No.

1237
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: You think this will work in the short term in

1238
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 1: the long term? Short, short term makes great sense. How

1239
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,880
Speaker 1: do you see this working out well for the organization in.

1240
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:33,439
Speaker 2: The long term?

1241
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 8: I think the long term is the time frame. I

1242
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 8: think he fits our time frame. If you pair him

1243
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,480
Speaker 8: with with Kyrie and the rest of the guys, he

1244
01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 8: fits right along with our time frame to win now

1245
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,240
Speaker 8: and win in the future. And and the future to

1246
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 8: me is three four years from now, in the future,

1247
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 8: ten years from now. I know, I don't think they

1248
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 8: probably bury me and Jay or we bear ourselves.

1249
01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 6: Straight up says that ten years from now is not

1250
01:04:58,560 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 6: what he's working.

1251
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:00,600
Speaker 1: It doesn't sound very bright.

1252
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 7: Oh you should see Jason Kidd's face when he says that.

1253
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 1: Jason Kidd looks don't says that. No, I can't say,

1254
01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:10,919
Speaker 1: they'll be burying me by that time.

1255
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,600
Speaker 6: I'm like, ten years, what are you talking about?

1256
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 7: So kind of a little bit of what we were

1257
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,800
Speaker 7: saying that it seems like they're thinking about right now immediately,

1258
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:20,920
Speaker 7: but no, Jason Kidd.

1259
01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 6: Is like, what are you talking about?

1260
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:23,479
Speaker 4: Bro?

1261
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 6: So it's happy right now. We'll get more soundbites as

1262
01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 6: it continues.

1263
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:29,840
Speaker 2: We had to say was, look, we're trying to win

1264
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 2: right now. Okay, we're trying to win right now. We

1265
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 2: can't be worried about the future. We're trying to figure

1266
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:36,840
Speaker 2: out what we're gonna do right now.

1267
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 1: That's the answer.

1268
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 6: That's it, that's it.

1269
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 7: But instead he literally said, in ten years, I don't know,

1270
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 7: we're probably gonna Oh my goodness, you don't get it.

1271
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 6: You don't get it.

1272
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,160
Speaker 7: And men's college hoop's going on still right now Ohio

1273
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 7: State and number eighteen Illinois, who's trying to make a

1274
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:51,680
Speaker 7: little bit of a comeback. But Ohio State is up

1275
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,200
Speaker 7: fifty five to fifty three with about eleven minutes to

1276
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:57,000
Speaker 7: go in the game. In the NHL, the Sabers are

1277
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:58,880
Speaker 7: on top of the Devil's three to one with four

1278
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 7: minutes to go in the second period, and the final

1279
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,760
Speaker 7: round at the Pebble Beach pro am continues right now.

1280
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:07,880
Speaker 7: Justin Rose, Rory McElroy, Shane Lowry are at the top

1281
01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 7: of the leaderboard at sixteen underpar.

1282
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 6: Overall.

1283
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 7: Lucas Glover, Tom cam Cam Davis and Stepstraka, who started

1284
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 7: at the top this morning, are one shot back back

1285
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 7: to you guys.

1286
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:20,200
Speaker 3: All right, thank you very much.

1287
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 1: Mine. Yes, yeah, it is so bad. I'm watching some

1288
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:26,240
Speaker 1: of the fallout from this Nico Harrison press conference. MONSI

1289
01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: was just playing sound from Yes. I mean, first of all,

1290
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 1: Jason Kidd looks he's wearing this Kangle hat. He's in

1291
01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:37,840
Speaker 1: there with the glasses on. In fact, while he's speaking,

1292
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:41,920
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison, GM of the Dallas Mavericks admitted Jay Kidd

1293
01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 1: had no idea about the trade. He gives him the thumb,

1294
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 1: he like points over them and it's like in the

1295
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,520
Speaker 1: cityot over here we.

1296
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 2: Wearing the hat. Let's hear more sound from this Mavericks.

1297
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:57,640
Speaker 8: GM trades don't happen at the smallest level without stuff

1298
01:06:57,680 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 8: getting out, and Rob and I were able to have,

1299
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:05,000
Speaker 8: you know, really intense conversations over the course of you know,

1300
01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 8: three or four weeks that started out as a coffee

1301
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 8: that you know, it was more Hey would you ever?

1302
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 8: I don't know what I let me think of, you know,

1303
01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:16,480
Speaker 8: and then it built him on that and you know,

1304
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,840
Speaker 8: we we kept it between us. We had to, we

1305
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 8: had to keep it tight. Jake Kid didn't know about it.

1306
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 8: But JK and I are aligned and we talk about

1307
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:27,400
Speaker 8: archetypes and we talk about the culture that we want

1308
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 8: to create. So I know the type of players that

1309
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 8: that he likes without actually talking to them. Hey would

1310
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 8: you like?

1311
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:34,560
Speaker 2: You know?

1312
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaker 8: So I know that, and JK coached them when they

1313
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,680
Speaker 8: won the championship, So so I think when you're aligned

1314
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,600
Speaker 8: with your coach like that, I know the type of

1315
01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:45,520
Speaker 8: players that he likes, and so I felt good about

1316
01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 8: it making sense to where we're trying to go from.

1317
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, I'm sorry. This guy is a complete buffoon.

1318
01:07:53,880 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 2: And look, you you have to believe again the magnitude

1319
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:03,240
Speaker 2: of this trade and how little they got in return

1320
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:07,840
Speaker 2: for a twenty five year old superstar had to come

1321
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 2: a mandate from ownership. You want to keep your job,

1322
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:13,800
Speaker 2: Unload this guy. We're not going to give him the

1323
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:15,640
Speaker 2: Supermax done.

1324
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,639
Speaker 1: Figure it out, yep, and give give, give us, give

1325
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 1: us the best you can return.

1326
01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:21,880
Speaker 3: And and and and again.

1327
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 2: The one thing he did say that makes sense, at

1328
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 2: least in the short term, pairing Kyrie Irving with Anthony

1329
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 2: Davis looks good. I mean, that's you got a great

1330
01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 2: point guard, a premier point guard, a premier big man,

1331
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:38,680
Speaker 2: and they still have years left, maybe one or two

1332
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 2: years where you could say, all right, put these two together,

1333
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:45,320
Speaker 2: let's see what happens. But in the long term, just

1334
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 2: say it. We're not worried about the long term. We

1335
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 2: were thinking right now. Luke has'm play since Christmas Day.

1336
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 2: We're not one hundred percent satisfied that he's going to

1337
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:56,120
Speaker 2: be in the condition necessary.

1338
01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:58,719
Speaker 1: Maybe in the short term, whatever it is. You will

1339
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:02,880
Speaker 1: never convince me, though, that this didn't start now again, publicly,

1340
01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:06,120
Speaker 1: we will never hear anybody admit this. But you will

1341
01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:11,080
Speaker 1: never convince me that this didn't start with either Lebron

1342
01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 1: himself or somebody from Lebron's camp personally, reaching out to

1343
01:09:16,320 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 1: somebody affiliated closely with Luca's camp and making sure that

1344
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 1: this could even be consummated before Rob Polinka and Nico

1345
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,599
Speaker 1: Harrison ever spoke to each other. Because the general manager

1346
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 1: of the Lakers in name only. By the way, Rob

1347
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:35,240
Speaker 1: Polinka is not actually the general manager of the Lakers.

1348
01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 1: He's not. Lebron James is the general manager of the Lakers.

1349
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:42,360
Speaker 1: The fact that the tweet even had to be put

1350
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,639
Speaker 1: out that Lebron was shocked and surprised by this, I mean,

1351
01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:48,040
Speaker 1: it is all just window dressing.

1352
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:52,200
Speaker 2: Do you believe that Lebron James will be playing in

1353
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 2: the NBA next season.

1354
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 1: I think he will be. I think he will be

1355
01:09:56,920 --> 01:10:00,560
Speaker 1: for his son. I think until Bronni James.

1356
01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:02,719
Speaker 2: Ronnie James is never going to be an NBA play.

1357
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 2: You know that playing in the NBA and being an

1358
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 2: NBA player in two different times.

1359
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,599
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. I'm telling you he is trying to

1360
01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 1: set his son up.

1361
01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:12,639
Speaker 3: Well, you can do that without playing.

1362
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 1: It's possible, but it's a lot easier if you are

1363
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:18,240
Speaker 1: because all of a sudden, because not as many people

1364
01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 1: are indebted to you when you're out of the league

1365
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:21,679
Speaker 1: than when you're in the league. That is for sure,

1366
01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 1: you have a lot more cache and a lot more

1367
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:25,840
Speaker 1: sway if he did.

1368
01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 2: The impossible, He got a team to actually waste a

1369
01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:30,720
Speaker 2: draft pick on a kid that was second team All

1370
01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:34,479
Speaker 2: league league and senior year in high school and yet

1371
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 2: miraculously showed up on the McDonald's All American team.

1372
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:39,760
Speaker 3: He was like the second or third best player in

1373
01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:40,280
Speaker 3: his high.

1374
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 2: School team, and he made McDonald's All American as a

1375
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:44,559
Speaker 2: second team All league player.

1376
01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:46,599
Speaker 1: And I skill, come hey bye, buddy.

1377
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:50,839
Speaker 2: He's already accomplished what no other player you could accomplish.

1378
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,479
Speaker 3: He was able to railroad his kid into the NBA.

1379
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,000
Speaker 1: And I don't think he's done. I don't think he's

1380
01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 1: done because also we were just having this conversation at break, Steve,

1381
01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 1: you know you you had mentioned yesterday on the air

1382
01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 1: chatting with Monsey about how Lebron James has probably done

1383
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 1: a major disservice to his son by exposing him the

1384
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:12,920
Speaker 1: way he has. You heard the MVP chance the other night.

1385
01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 2: They're mocking him, They're mocking him, and then he was

1386
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:18,679
Speaker 2: laughing on the bench as the crowd was mocking his son.

1387
01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:22,639
Speaker 1: I think he has unfinished business. I think he's going

1388
01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,719
Speaker 1: to try to make this work. I don't think he's

1389
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 1: done yet. I think we see Lebron James on the

1390
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 1: court as a Laker next season.

1391
01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,200
Speaker 2: Okay, well, if he is, it's gonna be interesting to

1392
01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:36,160
Speaker 2: see how his game actually meshes with Luka Doncis, because

1393
01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:38,639
Speaker 2: if you look at him statistically, they're the same guy.

1394
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:43,040
Speaker 2: Luca is not a great shooter. His career is under

1395
01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:45,720
Speaker 2: thirty five percent three point shooting, but he takes a

1396
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:46,400
Speaker 2: lot of shots.

1397
01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:47,519
Speaker 1: He's a volume shooter.

1398
01:11:47,600 --> 01:11:48,960
Speaker 3: I mean he's a volume shooter.

1399
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 2: He handles the ball much like James Harden did back

1400
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:57,400
Speaker 2: in his Rocket days. He basically just holds the ball.

1401
01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:02,200
Speaker 2: He dribbles, Yeah, he holds hold count dribbles. I mean.

1402
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 1: Who got that job?

1403
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,559
Speaker 2: And it was like had like fifty more tribbles than

1404
01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 2: any other player. Like, that's the game that Doncis plays,

1405
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 2: played played with the Mavericks.

1406
01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:15,519
Speaker 3: How's that going to work now?

1407
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:18,679
Speaker 2: Because he will not be able to play that game

1408
01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:21,800
Speaker 2: that he has with the Mavericks with Lebron James on

1409
01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:22,160
Speaker 2: the court.

1410
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:26,479
Speaker 1: Yep, it's impossible. It's just not going to happen.

1411
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 2: They play a very similar game. So I don't know

1412
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,400
Speaker 2: how this is going to mesh between the two of them.

1413
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:35,400
Speaker 2: What's interesting, obviously, is that you have the trade deadline

1414
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:39,080
Speaker 2: on Thursday, and the Lakers still had plenty of trade

1415
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 2: capital right now to get what they need desperately, which

1416
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 2: is a big.

1417
01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 1: They didn't give up anything to get Luca.

1418
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:49,920
Speaker 2: I mean, they gave up a D But I meanma,

1419
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:53,640
Speaker 2: you've got these guys that were already supposedly potentially on

1420
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:55,280
Speaker 2: the trend. By the way, they got to get a

1421
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 2: big Dalton connect who's been a pretty solid perimeter shooter

1422
01:12:58,880 --> 01:12:59,160
Speaker 2: for them.

1423
01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:03,519
Speaker 1: So yeah, I they they need a rim protector. They

1424
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:06,559
Speaker 1: need somebody in the paint. Obviously, now that Ad is gone,

1425
01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:09,600
Speaker 1: they're going to be able to spend the capital to

1426
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:11,719
Speaker 1: find that. And then the Lakers all of a sudden

1427
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:15,160
Speaker 1: vault themselves to the tippy top of the conversation, just

1428
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 1: where they always want to be. It was part of

1429
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,280
Speaker 1: the reason why they signed Lebron James to a contract

1430
01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,639
Speaker 1: in the first place. It's the reason why he wanted

1431
01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:25,960
Speaker 1: to be in LA. It's it's what the late doctor

1432
01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:28,680
Speaker 1: Jerry Buss always said. He was like, I don't just

1433
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:31,839
Speaker 1: want a good basketball team, I want an entertaining product

1434
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:34,960
Speaker 1: for the fans. Is there anything more entertaining than the

1435
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:38,759
Speaker 1: prospect of seeing Luca and Lebron James playing Los Angeles together?

1436
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,519
Speaker 1: Not this NBA season. This is it.

1437
01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:44,240
Speaker 2: The story has you see all thes money going in

1438
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,639
Speaker 2: on the lakers hip. Holy Only Everyone's like, oh, now

1439
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 2: Lakers are the team to beat, and I'm like, they

1440
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:54,080
Speaker 2: have no defense. They literally have no UFC Luca ever

1441
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:57,519
Speaker 2: play any defense. No, they have no defense, they have

1442
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:00,800
Speaker 2: no rim protector. And yet everybody's like pouring money in

1443
01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,639
Speaker 2: on the Lakers win the championship.

1444
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:05,080
Speaker 3: All right, another shift into gears.

1445
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:05,759
Speaker 1: For just a moment.

1446
01:14:05,800 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 2: On the other side, Rich, I have, as you know,

1447
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:12,679
Speaker 2: big connection with Halls of Fame.

1448
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,719
Speaker 1: Yes, much to your disdain, Yes.

1449
01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:17,679
Speaker 2: But I have found out with the big announcement coming

1450
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:19,599
Speaker 2: up on Thursday and the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

1451
01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 1: Uh huh. I know who was eliminated. Wow, I'm gonna

1452
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:24,519
Speaker 1: give you a name.

1453
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:28,360
Speaker 2: One hundred percent will not be part of the Pro

1454
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:30,559
Speaker 2: Football Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty five.

1455
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 1: I have an inside.

1456
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 2: No one else has this, only I have it, and

1457
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:35,800
Speaker 2: I'm sharing it with you out there.

1458
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:41,120
Speaker 1: This is Fox Football Sunday, Steve Harmon and Rich Armburger.

1459
01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:42,800
Speaker 3: Here Fox Football Sunday.

1460
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:47,720
Speaker 2: We are live from the Tairaq dot Com studios. So

1461
01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:50,839
Speaker 2: part of the entire week leading up to the Super

1462
01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:54,680
Speaker 2: Bowl is the NFL Honors. This is where you have

1463
01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,200
Speaker 2: all the season awards that will be announced a big

1464
01:14:57,240 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 2: ceremony on Thursday, and they will all so announced the

1465
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:03,519
Speaker 2: Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty five.

1466
01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 2: So if you've been listening to me over those last

1467
01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:09,720
Speaker 2: one hundred years, you know that I have a lot

1468
01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 2: of interest in the Hall of Fame, and I'm partnered

1469
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:16,200
Speaker 2: with someone that has total disdain for honors and Hall

1470
01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:16,519
Speaker 2: of Fame.

1471
01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:19,080
Speaker 3: So it's you talk about an odd couple, that's us.

1472
01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 2: But anyway, I do like to share some information that

1473
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:26,120
Speaker 2: I can share with you. So the actual class will

1474
01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:31,920
Speaker 2: be announced on Thursday. However, I have already through sources,

1475
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,639
Speaker 2: confirmed who will definitely not.

1476
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 1: Be in the Class of twenty twenty five.

1477
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:43,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so from the fifteen, eight have been eliminated and

1478
01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:47,760
Speaker 2: there's seven left, of which no more than five will

1479
01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:50,000
Speaker 2: actually make the Hall of Fame class. So I'm not

1480
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:51,800
Speaker 2: going to share any of those names, but I will

1481
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,799
Speaker 2: give you one name of someone that was one hundred

1482
01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 2: percent eliminated from consideration.

1483
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,000
Speaker 1: For the Pro Football Hall of Fame class of twenty

1484
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:02,559
Speaker 1: twenty five. All right, let me hear it.

1485
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:11,439
Speaker 2: And that person is Eli Manning.

1486
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:12,679
Speaker 1: That is so stupid.

1487
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:17,240
Speaker 2: So Eli Manning was eliminated. He was cut and will

1488
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:21,000
Speaker 2: not be a first ballot Hall of Famer. So, Eli Manning,

1489
01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:24,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure at some point will get in the Hall

1490
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,439
Speaker 2: of Fame. Although we got a lot of quarterbacks that

1491
01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:28,680
Speaker 2: are suddenly going to be up for got. You might

1492
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,840
Speaker 2: have heard Tom Brady, Drew Brees, some of these guys

1493
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:34,560
Speaker 2: that have insane Hall of Fame credentials.

1494
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:36,519
Speaker 3: But Eli Manning will not.

1495
01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:39,679
Speaker 1: Be a member of the twenty twenty five Pro Football

1496
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:43,120
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Pass Tom Brady was beaten by two

1497
01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in Super Bowls. Yeah, Nick Foles, who will not

1498
01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:48,200
Speaker 1: be in the Hall of Fame. I do not think

1499
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 1: you will. But and then the other name is Eli Manning.

1500
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,760
Speaker 1: And how many times did Eli beat Tom Brady? And

1501
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 1: those Super Bowl Eli beat him? Or Dad Giants defense

1502
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 1: beat him? So he won two Super Bowls. Yes, he'd

1503
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 1: against the greatest quarterback of all time in the only

1504
01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 1: two meetings that the Giants had with the Patriots. In

1505
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:09,840
Speaker 1: those Super Bowls in that era, and Eli Manning is

1506
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 1: not in the NFL's or Pro Football's Hall of Fame.

1507
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:15,280
Speaker 2: Well, at some point he probably will be. But he

1508
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:18,920
Speaker 2: had a career five hundred record. He never won any awards,

1509
01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 2: you know, none, never even got a single vote ever

1510
01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:24,240
Speaker 2: for you know, all the first.

1511
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 3: Team All Pro. And so this is when you talk

1512
01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:27,720
Speaker 3: about Joe Montana.

1513
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 1: It's it's just so stupid. I mean, it's just so dumb.

1514
01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:35,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So you think, if you think what quarterback's Johnny Andidas,

1515
01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:41,719
Speaker 2: Peyton Manning, Brett farv Uh, these are first ballot guys,

1516
01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:44,559
Speaker 2: and you think that he should be included on that list.

1517
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 1: Does it tarnish their reputation if Eli Manning is allowed

1518
01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 1: in on a first ballot?

1519
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:50,400
Speaker 9: No?

1520
01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:53,800
Speaker 1: Does it diminish the greatness of Johnny Unitis or his

1521
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:58,000
Speaker 1: brother Peyton or any of the other predecessors who have

1522
01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:01,160
Speaker 1: made the Hall before him. No, it just it just

1523
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:03,599
Speaker 1: it's bizarre to me that he needs to wait. He's

1524
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,479
Speaker 1: obviously a Hall of Famer. I mean, expand the class

1525
01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:09,280
Speaker 1: to six included, I mean, why are we just limiting

1526
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:09,760
Speaker 1: it to time?

1527
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 3: I No, No, he didn't make the final seven.

1528
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:14,360
Speaker 1: So no, he was. He was spanned the class to

1529
01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:16,880
Speaker 1: eight that I don't I'll put it this way. It's

1530
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:17,200
Speaker 1: just so.

1531
01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:19,600
Speaker 2: He was the only stat that he ever led the

1532
01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:21,840
Speaker 2: league in. He actually led the league in this one

1533
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:25,919
Speaker 2: stat three times interception, the only.

1534
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:27,280
Speaker 1: Stat he ever led the NFL in.

1535
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:29,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know does that screen first ballot

1536
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:30,280
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame?

1537
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:34,040
Speaker 1: But okay, but let me get history. Let me write

1538
01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,439
Speaker 1: the history of the NFL without including or mentioning Eli

1539
01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:38,080
Speaker 1: Manning's name.

1540
01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 2: Here here was his one lost record and by the way,

1541
01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:46,240
Speaker 2: his greatness in the postseason for two years it almost

1542
01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:50,240
Speaker 2: supersedes all of what he did in the regular season.

1543
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:52,720
Speaker 1: Those runs were miraculous.

1544
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 2: So he had two phenomenal runs and four other postseason appearances.

1545
01:18:57,080 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: He was one and done. How did he perform in those?

1546
01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:03,720
Speaker 3: He played very well in those seasons and he was

1547
01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 3: a gamer.

1548
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:06,960
Speaker 1: He got to the NFL's postseason, which is supposed to

1549
01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:07,400
Speaker 1: be the.

1550
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:10,160
Speaker 2: Most Why is Jim Plunkett not in the Hall of Fame?

1551
01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:12,599
Speaker 2: He won two Super Bowls and in both those games

1552
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:14,800
Speaker 2: his teams were also Underdoff.

1553
01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:17,400
Speaker 1: Put him in two. Okay, there you go. I mean,

1554
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:20,400
Speaker 1: this is my point. Why are we making this so exposed.

1555
01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 2: Why are you singling out the quarterback, Eli Manning? There

1556
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,360
Speaker 2: were other giants that were on both those teams. Put

1557
01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:29,640
Speaker 2: them okay, see you see this is this is the

1558
01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:33,479
Speaker 2: difference between me sensible and this guy.

1559
01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,799
Speaker 1: Well, I don't say, I don't mean every single player, okay, okay,

1560
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:38,360
Speaker 1: but very least the kicker.

1561
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:42,800
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of kickers, Adam Vinatieria, I'm gonna

1562
01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:45,240
Speaker 2: tell you this didn't make the final seven.

1563
01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:45,879
Speaker 1: Wow.

1564
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 2: He made the Final seven in his first day of eligibility,

1565
01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:52,880
Speaker 2: but Eli Manning did not. We have more coming up

Speaker 1: Com the way tire buying should be. All right, So.

1575
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,960
Speaker 2: This is uh, this is always an interesting week leading

1576
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 2: up to the big game. And I was mentioning earlier

1577
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 2: one of the reasons that I'm I'm very much believing

1578
01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 2: that Eagles have more than a fighter's chance to win

1579
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:39,160
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl is having been there before, because if

1580
01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:43,639
Speaker 2: you haven't as a player, or as a coach, assistant coach,

1581
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:46,800
Speaker 2: or anyone in an organization, if you've never had the

1582
01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:50,559
Speaker 2: Super Bowl experience, it is unlike anything you will ever

1583
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:55,080
Speaker 2: experience at any level of football. When you get into town,

1584
01:20:55,960 --> 01:21:00,960
Speaker 2: you arrive and immediately the entire world of media. And

1585
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:03,439
Speaker 2: when I say world, I mean world and there's no

1586
01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 2: bigger event. I mean World Cup obviously is bigger, but

1587
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:08,519
Speaker 2: that not only comes every four years, but the super

1588
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:11,759
Speaker 2: Bowl is right there. So you have the entire media

1589
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 2: world descending upon you, and the NFL basically demands that

1590
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:24,559
Speaker 2: you partake. I remember the first Super Bowl I covered

1591
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:30,080
Speaker 2: as a radio personality was Super Bowl twenty five between

1592
01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:33,280
Speaker 2: the Giants and the Bills. Bills are coming off a

1593
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:36,679
Speaker 2: smashing victory over the Raiders, and the Giants at upset

1594
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:40,280
Speaker 2: without their starting quarterback. Phil Simms that Jeff hostetleric quarterback,

1595
01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:42,200
Speaker 2: had upset the forty nine ers, who, by the way,

1596
01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 2: we're trying to repeat that year and so, but there

1597
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:48,040
Speaker 2: was this overwhelming like the Bills, I think were seven

1598
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:51,160
Speaker 2: point favorites, overwhelming favors. But instead of two weeks, they

1599
01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,920
Speaker 2: only had one week and still had the same requirements.

1600
01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 2: And Marv Levy, the Bills coach, said, no, I got

1601
01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:00,719
Speaker 2: to get ready for a game, right and he got

1602
01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:02,040
Speaker 2: fine and everything else.

1603
01:22:02,080 --> 01:22:03,559
Speaker 3: Well, they don't have to worry about that.

1604
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:06,920
Speaker 2: So you were part of a team, obviously getting ready

1605
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:09,679
Speaker 2: for a super Bowl. Let's talk a little bit about

1606
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:13,240
Speaker 2: two teams again. Obviously the Chiefs believe not fifth super

1607
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:15,880
Speaker 2: Bowl in the last six years, Eagle second super Bowl

1608
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:18,760
Speaker 2: in the last three years, ridiculous. What was it like

1609
01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 2: this past week in terms of preparation for the game?

1610
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 2: Understanding that at least until maybe Thursday, they've got so

1611
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 2: many things required to do in terms of the media

1612
01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:34,760
Speaker 2: that they just don't have time to really focus so

1613
01:22:34,840 --> 01:22:38,080
Speaker 2: much on game plan as opposed to that, How much

1614
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 2: was done at home this week by both these teams?

1615
01:22:41,240 --> 01:22:44,400
Speaker 1: A lot? Actually a lot, you know, because when you

1616
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 1: don't have a game to prepare for, you can practice

1617
01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,799
Speaker 1: about as hard as you want to. And I remember

1618
01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:53,839
Speaker 1: when I was in New England, this was the twenty

1619
01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:58,479
Speaker 1: eleven season, preparing for the twenty twelve Patriots Giant super

1620
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:02,519
Speaker 1: Bowl in Indianapolis was the second meeting. This was the

1621
01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:06,400
Speaker 1: Mario Manningham catch that Super Bowl win for the Giants,

1622
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:10,640
Speaker 1: But preparing for the game, I remember that week not

1623
01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:13,960
Speaker 1: feeling all that different from a lot of other weeks

1624
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:18,479
Speaker 1: preparing for a game. However, however, I will say this,

1625
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:22,599
Speaker 1: there was an awareness when you're on the field, like

1626
01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:26,080
Speaker 1: an excitement in the pit of your belly. For me,

1627
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,040
Speaker 1: especially being this being my first trip to a Super Bowl.

1628
01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:30,559
Speaker 1: For many of the players who were on the team,

1629
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:33,400
Speaker 1: this was in certain cases their fourth trip to the

1630
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:36,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. You know, like there was like this this

1631
01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 1: brewing excitement that was feeling like we were getting closer

1632
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:43,320
Speaker 1: and closer to some sort of culmination because we knew

1633
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,200
Speaker 1: our travel schedule, we knew when we were boarding the

1634
01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:48,840
Speaker 1: flights and heading out to Indianapolis, which was our super

1635
01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:53,440
Speaker 1: Bowl site, and so you're getting you're getting ready basically

1636
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:56,519
Speaker 1: to restart and get ready all over again whenever you

1637
01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 1: land in Indy, and so that's what it was. It

1638
01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 1: kind of felt like it kind of felt like a

1639
01:24:02,640 --> 01:24:06,839
Speaker 1: normal bye week where you would be preparing for upcoming

1640
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:10,840
Speaker 1: opponents or an opponent. However, it was more exciting than that.

1641
01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:13,240
Speaker 1: Because you knew waiting for you on the other end

1642
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: was all the pomp and circumstance of a Super Bowl visit,

1643
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 1: the media days, your family meeting you out there, and

1644
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:24,480
Speaker 1: your phone, I mean my phone as a backup offensive

1645
01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:27,479
Speaker 1: lineman at the time of my career was I was

1646
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 1: getting texts and calls and my phone was ringing off

1647
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:33,760
Speaker 1: the hook. So away from the field of play, it

1648
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,759
Speaker 1: felt different. But the week of at practice it felt

1649
01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:38,800
Speaker 1: like just another week. You know.

1650
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:43,120
Speaker 2: I was so excited for that Super Bowl in Indianapolis

1651
01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:47,080
Speaker 2: because obviously we did not meet until I came to

1652
01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:49,519
Speaker 2: San Diego, and of course you end up retiring from

1653
01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 2: the Chargers and that began our odyssey together. But we

1654
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,639
Speaker 2: were in the same room because I was in that

1655
01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:59,360
Speaker 2: you know, media content, the media tent, because I was well,

1656
01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:02,880
Speaker 2: not the circus thing, the individual day, you know, where

1657
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:05,439
Speaker 2: you're sitting at an individual table. You take a bus

1658
01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:08,559
Speaker 2: over there, and the one guy I wanted to see was.

1659
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah.

1660
01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:16,120
Speaker 2: Because because because Junior and I had a long history

1661
01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:18,080
Speaker 2: in San Diego, I used to m see his golf

1662
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:19,000
Speaker 2: tournament everything else.

1663
01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 3: I was so excited for him that finally he was

1664
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:22,200
Speaker 3: going to win a Super.

1665
01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:24,920
Speaker 2: Bowl, Like I'm literally talking to Junior and like, this

1666
01:25:25,080 --> 01:25:27,760
Speaker 2: is great that you're gonna and I'm sure I must

1667
01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:29,080
Speaker 2: have walked right by your table.

1668
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:30,920
Speaker 1: I don't know how, you know. You know what's weird

1669
01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:34,040
Speaker 1: is my table was sparsely attended.

1670
01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:37,000
Speaker 2: That I just did not understand that we were in

1671
01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:39,920
Speaker 2: the same room together. It's but I mean, but again,

1672
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:42,640
Speaker 2: both these teams have been there obviously, Chiefs and this

1673
01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:45,080
Speaker 2: Eagles team have been there, so they they are going

1674
01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 2: to be well prepared for this week. Nothing's going to

1675
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 2: throw them for a loop. One thing you do not

1676
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,599
Speaker 2: want to do during this week is say something that's

1677
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:54,120
Speaker 2: going to be bulletin board stuff.

1678
01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: See that. That was the tricky part because obviously I

1679
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:00,840
Speaker 1: was playing on a team with a lot of big personalities,

1680
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:03,920
Speaker 1: but it was the Patriot way, you know. So one

1681
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:07,320
Speaker 1: thing that we would avoid, or I should say that

1682
01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:10,360
Speaker 1: Coach Belichick wanted us to avoid, and he did it

1683
01:26:10,400 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 1: by like flying the room with examples, bad examples of

1684
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:17,800
Speaker 1: guys who put their foot in their mouth in the past.

1685
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:21,120
Speaker 1: And this is where the preparation in New England was

1686
01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:24,560
Speaker 1: different from any other place I played. There were constant

1687
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:28,640
Speaker 1: examples that Belichick would make using something that hit the

1688
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,960
Speaker 1: news cycle either years ago or recently, or things that

1689
01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,639
Speaker 1: he could bring as a teaching point from a media

1690
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:38,960
Speaker 1: standpoint to our squad meetings with him, and some of

1691
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,599
Speaker 1: those were marathon team meetings where we would be in there,

1692
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:43,920
Speaker 1: sometimes only thirty minutes, sometimes an hour and a half,

1693
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:46,439
Speaker 1: and part of it was to coach us up on

1694
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:49,240
Speaker 1: how to handle the different interactions we were going to

1695
01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:51,800
Speaker 1: be having, the type of questions that we were going

1696
01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:55,000
Speaker 1: to be fielding and avoiding saying the thing that was

1697
01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:58,400
Speaker 1: going to trip you up in the in the media cycle.

1698
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,800
Speaker 1: Because he planed it this way. He was like, you know,

1699
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:04,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna go through it early this week, and he's like,

1700
01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,280
Speaker 1: and then the media cycle repeats the end of this week,

1701
01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:09,600
Speaker 1: and then it repeats over the weekend. He was like,

1702
01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:12,000
Speaker 1: anything that stated over the weekend is going to come

1703
01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:14,680
Speaker 1: up on Monday. There was like four or five, I

1704
01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:17,840
Speaker 1: forget separate media cycles that he was talking about, and

1705
01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:20,360
Speaker 1: if you get spun up in one of them, he

1706
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:22,960
Speaker 1: was like, it could ruin the party.

1707
01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:28,080
Speaker 2: So don't be that guy. Basically, and they're gonna bait you. Yeah,

1708
01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:30,160
Speaker 2: so they're gonna bait you. There's plenty of members of

1709
01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:32,799
Speaker 2: the media know how to bait you and spin things

1710
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:35,080
Speaker 2: and try to get you to say something that you

1711
01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:37,719
Speaker 2: don't intend saying, so you have to be careful.

1712
01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:39,160
Speaker 3: But you never had that problem with the Patriots.

1713
01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:39,560
Speaker 1: Only me.

1714
01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 2: I covered almost all of those Patriots super bowls. Tom

1715
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,640
Speaker 2: Brady was boring, boring.

1716
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:50,760
Speaker 1: Boring, boring, boring, boring by design, by design, absolutely, so

1717
01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:51,439
Speaker 1: they have a way.

1718
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:54,280
Speaker 2: But you know, this is Andy Reid sixth super Bowl

1719
01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:56,760
Speaker 2: as a head coach, five with Kansas City one back

1720
01:27:56,760 --> 01:27:59,960
Speaker 2: in his day with the Eagles, and Nick Sirianni's been

1721
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:02,160
Speaker 2: here before, so I think it's going to be a

1722
01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:05,599
Speaker 2: very low key weeks.

1723
01:28:06,120 --> 01:28:08,120
Speaker 1: I will see a coverage. I will say this though.

1724
01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:11,760
Speaker 1: One thing that has changed the paradigm from a standpoint

1725
01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 1: of media coverage, and we've all experienced this now. A

1726
01:28:15,520 --> 01:28:18,599
Speaker 1: lot of people listen to, for example, Jason and Travis

1727
01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:23,120
Speaker 1: Kelsey's podcast, but players podcasting has changed the media landscape

1728
01:28:23,200 --> 01:28:27,720
Speaker 1: for former players podcasting or having actual reputable shows on

1729
01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:30,800
Speaker 1: network television like Pat McAfee. You know he'll be on

1730
01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:33,439
Speaker 1: site at the Super Bowl. There's plenty of examples of

1731
01:28:33,520 --> 01:28:36,599
Speaker 1: players who have made the leap either post career or

1732
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:39,479
Speaker 1: during their career, who will be on media row at

1733
01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:43,240
Speaker 1: the super Bowl site. And these are peers, these are friends.

1734
01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:46,160
Speaker 1: It's easier to get tripped up to say the wrong

1735
01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:49,519
Speaker 1: thing when you're more comfortable with somebody than when it's

1736
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:54,240
Speaker 1: like some you know, reporter who is foreign from your culture,

1737
01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:56,760
Speaker 1: from your locker room. You haven't seen him. He's not

1738
01:28:56,800 --> 01:28:59,559
Speaker 1: a beat writer, he's some national guy, or he's from

1739
01:28:59,560 --> 01:29:05,120
Speaker 1: some low goal, you know, the Carolina Star Telegram coming

1740
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:08,080
Speaker 1: in and asking you a couple of questions about your teammates.

1741
01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:12,519
Speaker 1: If they ask any question that's even potentially answered in

1742
01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:16,000
Speaker 1: an inflammatory nature, you're not going to give them the goods.

1743
01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:18,720
Speaker 1: You're prepared for that. But when you're sitting on a

1744
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:22,360
Speaker 1: couch during a long form conversation with somebody for an

1745
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 1: hour plus, and it's a buddy of yours, somebody who

1746
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,320
Speaker 1: maybe you played college football with, you know, maybe it's

1747
01:29:27,320 --> 01:29:30,320
Speaker 1: somebody who you know through your your circles in the NFL,

1748
01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 1: you have a lot of friends in different locker rooms,

1749
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:35,040
Speaker 1: and you're, you know, you're just trading stories, and then

1750
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:38,120
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you get caught off guard answering

1751
01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:41,639
Speaker 1: a question you really shouldn't answer. That's what I'm curious

1752
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:43,439
Speaker 1: about over the next two weeks if any of the

1753
01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: players on the Chiefs or on the Eagles get caught

1754
01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:47,320
Speaker 1: up in something like that.

1755
01:29:47,560 --> 01:29:50,320
Speaker 2: As someone that was a veteran from the very beginning,

1756
01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:54,439
Speaker 2: and I always kid my my buddy Chris mad Dog

1757
01:29:54,479 --> 01:29:58,880
Speaker 2: Russo that we essentially started radio row Super Bowl twenty

1758
01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:01,720
Speaker 2: five in Tampa. Giants were there, so Mike and the

1759
01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:04,840
Speaker 2: Mad Dog were there over their second year together.

1760
01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:07,880
Speaker 1: And Sessa and Russo so they were there obviously to

1761
01:30:07,920 --> 01:30:08,719
Speaker 1: cover the Giants.

1762
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:11,880
Speaker 2: And we had started six ninety on the West coast

1763
01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:15,000
Speaker 2: and they sent me and my producer, Chris Visser, just

1764
01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:17,360
Speaker 2: the two of us, to Tampa and we're like, well,

1765
01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:18,519
Speaker 2: where are you going to do the show?

1766
01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:19,719
Speaker 1: And so.

1767
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:24,000
Speaker 2: Visser says, well, I understand Mike and the Mad Dog.

1768
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:25,800
Speaker 2: Where are they going to be. They're going to be

1769
01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:28,680
Speaker 2: at this hotel. They're gonna have a table there and

1770
01:30:28,720 --> 01:30:32,000
Speaker 2: they're gonna have giant fans sort of sitting around. He says,

1771
01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 2: all right, we'll set up a table right next to it.

1772
01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:37,639
Speaker 2: So if they if they if they get somebody over,

1773
01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:38,400
Speaker 2: maybe we can.

1774
01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:39,840
Speaker 3: You know, we're always.

1775
01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:42,280
Speaker 2: Overplaying who we were obviously in the beginning like we're

1776
01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:44,080
Speaker 2: la you know, we got everything.

1777
01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:46,639
Speaker 1: We're just overplaying it anyway. So that's what we did.

1778
01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:48,600
Speaker 1: So we set up a table. I do.

1779
01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:49,960
Speaker 3: I'll never get this.

1780
01:30:50,240 --> 01:30:53,600
Speaker 2: So I'm sitting at this table by myself as producers

1781
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,719
Speaker 2: running around trying to find anybody, you know, to come over.

1782
01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,680
Speaker 1: To talk to us at a hotel no less. And

1783
01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:00,760
Speaker 1: there was this.

1784
01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:04,080
Speaker 2: Giants fan who was sitting there listening to Mike and

1785
01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:07,280
Speaker 2: the Mad Dog. And he walks toward my table, right, yeah,

1786
01:31:08,160 --> 01:31:10,400
Speaker 2: And I got the headset on and everything the old

1787
01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:13,479
Speaker 2: head snip and I'm talking right and the guy looks

1788
01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:15,080
Speaker 2: at me, and I'm looking up at him. I don't

1789
01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:17,960
Speaker 2: say anything to him, and I had, you know, like

1790
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 2: a pen and paper in front of me. He reaches across,

1791
01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:22,840
Speaker 2: grabs my pen and walked away.

1792
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:25,840
Speaker 1: It was on the air.

1793
01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:28,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if I thought I worked there or

1794
01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:31,400
Speaker 2: you're like, dude, I'm actually doing a radio show here.

1795
01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:34,680
Speaker 2: But to think about that, I remember the following year

1796
01:31:34,680 --> 01:31:37,000
Speaker 2: we are in Minneapolis. Now, I think there were five

1797
01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:40,720
Speaker 2: stations there, right, and so when I think of that

1798
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:42,960
Speaker 2: to where it is now, it's not even radio row anymore.

1799
01:31:42,960 --> 01:31:46,240
Speaker 2: It's it's called media row because as you mentioned, it's

1800
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:51,680
Speaker 2: podcast a lot. There podcasts everywhere. But the you know,

1801
01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:55,639
Speaker 2: the plethora of all these celebrities. They used to you know, parade.

1802
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,679
Speaker 2: Those days are gone. Well they don't do that anymore.

1803
01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:02,360
Speaker 2: What's interesting extent that they used to. What's interesting is

1804
01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:04,840
Speaker 2: is it has become a little fractured. Yeah, like you know,

1805
01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:06,760
Speaker 2: really it's a little bit of.

1806
01:32:06,720 --> 01:32:10,400
Speaker 1: Inside baseball to discuss from a media standpoint with what happens.

1807
01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:13,439
Speaker 1: But I will I will say this from both the

1808
01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:16,400
Speaker 1: player side of the Super Bowl, like being a part

1809
01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:19,360
Speaker 1: of a Super Bowl team and visiting a Super Bowl

1810
01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:23,639
Speaker 1: site and being you know, shuttled around and visiting these

1811
01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:26,720
Speaker 1: various media events that we were required to be a

1812
01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:29,320
Speaker 1: part of, and then also being invited to things that

1813
01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:32,080
Speaker 1: were you know, non Super Bowl sanctioned things that we

1814
01:32:32,120 --> 01:32:34,640
Speaker 1: could go out and do while we're on site. That

1815
01:32:34,840 --> 01:32:38,759
Speaker 1: was a very interesting slice of you know, of life

1816
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:41,040
Speaker 1: to see what it's like from that side of it.

1817
01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:45,280
Speaker 1: But then, you know, kind of correspondingly, after my career

1818
01:32:45,360 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 1: ended as a player and I began this broadcast journey,

1819
01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:52,760
Speaker 1: going to the same thing, you know, in Houston, in Minneapolis.

1820
01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:55,240
Speaker 2: Our time in La together, our time in lainably only

1821
01:32:55,320 --> 01:32:55,960
Speaker 2: three years ago.

1822
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:58,960
Speaker 1: Done, Sorry it does seem longer. But but covering the

1823
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,479
Speaker 1: Super Bowl in LA for from that standpoint, it is

1824
01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:05,240
Speaker 1: interesting to see the circus that that it is and

1825
01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:10,479
Speaker 1: that it's become because you don't realize how many people

1826
01:33:10,880 --> 01:33:14,320
Speaker 1: are waiting for the story to break. Yeah, like the story,

1827
01:33:14,560 --> 01:33:17,040
Speaker 1: we don't know what it's gonna be. You don't know

1828
01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 1: who's gonna say the stupid thing or who's gonna give

1829
01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:23,040
Speaker 1: you the little nugget that gets you know, gobbled up

1830
01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:26,080
Speaker 1: by every single person waiting. But when I tell you,

1831
01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:31,040
Speaker 1: there are literally thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people

1832
01:33:31,439 --> 01:33:35,400
Speaker 1: waiting to break the story it is. I mean, so

1833
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:38,280
Speaker 1: any crumb that gets dropped, it'll get chewed up on.

1834
01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:41,519
Speaker 1: So that is the key point. That's what Andy Reid

1835
01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:44,200
Speaker 1: is staying in front of his team in Kansas City.

1836
01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:47,120
Speaker 1: That is what Nick Sirihanni is delivering in front of

1837
01:33:47,160 --> 01:33:50,599
Speaker 1: his team in Philadelphia this week. They're saying, listen, don't

1838
01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:53,760
Speaker 1: give him a crumb, don't give them a cent, don't

1839
01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:56,200
Speaker 1: give them a whiff, because it's all they want.

1840
01:33:56,520 --> 01:33:59,000
Speaker 2: Every time I think about three years ago, so I

1841
01:33:59,120 --> 01:34:03,680
Speaker 2: would have to live and pick up Rich who was

1842
01:34:03,720 --> 01:34:05,920
Speaker 2: staying at his in laws house in Westwood.

1843
01:34:06,160 --> 01:34:08,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, at like four.

1844
01:34:07,960 --> 01:34:11,360
Speaker 2: O'clock in the morning, because they were doing the morning show,

1845
01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:14,360
Speaker 2: right and then right right, I'm better drive all the

1846
01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:17,599
Speaker 2: way to downtown LA, so I would, I would roll by.

1847
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:21,639
Speaker 1: I didn't want to honk obviously, just hoping that Rich

1848
01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:23,200
Speaker 1: was up, you know, ready to go.

1849
01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:26,920
Speaker 2: That was a process, all right, don't miss that, all right?

1850
01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 2: Coming up on the other side. All right, Patrick mahomes

1851
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 2: place in history if he wins a third consecutive Super Bowl.

1852
01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:40,799
Speaker 1: Where exactly does that take.

1853
01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:43,360
Speaker 2: Him on the all time list? We'll tell you. This

1854
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:49,040
Speaker 2: is Fox Football Sunday, Steve Hartman and Rich Harmburger. Here

1855
01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:53,320
Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday. We are live from the tire Raq

1856
01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:59,960
Speaker 2: dot Com studios. I was watching replay on the NFL

1857
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,679
Speaker 2: on Network of the Super Bowl fifty seven.

1858
01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:05,880
Speaker 3: Hopefully this game will be as entertaining as that.

1859
01:35:05,800 --> 01:35:10,280
Speaker 2: Game was, as both quarterbacks played at a very high level. Obviously,

1860
01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts was really the big story of that Super Bowl,

1861
01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:18,120
Speaker 2: outside of that one fatal mistake where he literally just

1862
01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:21,000
Speaker 2: drops the ball, like the ball just slips out of

1863
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:23,960
Speaker 2: his hand, bounces right into the arms of the Chiefs

1864
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:25,200
Speaker 2: guy and he runs for a touchdown.

1865
01:35:25,360 --> 01:35:27,040
Speaker 3: That's the difference. Three point game.

1866
01:35:27,160 --> 01:35:27,360
Speaker 1: Yep.

1867
01:35:27,479 --> 01:35:29,720
Speaker 3: And this is again you're like, wow, it's rig for

1868
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:30,200
Speaker 3: the Chiefs.

1869
01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:30,640
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1870
01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:33,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think he purposely dropped that ball. Okay,

1871
01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:36,960
Speaker 2: that's my guess. But hopefully everyone will play at a

1872
01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:38,960
Speaker 2: high level in this game, just like they did two

1873
01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:44,120
Speaker 2: years ago. As far as Patrick Mahomes is concerned, if

1874
01:35:44,200 --> 01:35:47,920
Speaker 2: he wins this Super Bowl and does what has never

1875
01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:51,840
Speaker 2: been done before in the Super Bowl era, winning three

1876
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,559
Speaker 2: consecutive championships. I mean, technically back in the day, bart

1877
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:57,719
Speaker 2: Star won three in a row, but the first one

1878
01:35:57,760 --> 01:36:00,559
Speaker 2: was before the Super Bowl, so he won the NFL

1879
01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:03,960
Speaker 2: championship in nineteen sixty five. The Super Bowl came the

1880
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 2: next year, and then he won the first two Super Bowls.

1881
01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:10,640
Speaker 1: So that's the last quarterback to win three straight NFL championships.

1882
01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:14,120
Speaker 2: But Richie, I know we've had a disagreement about this

1883
01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:19,559
Speaker 2: when we talk about franchise quarterbacks because I can't put

1884
01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:24,040
Speaker 2: any current quarterback in the company of Patrick Mahomes.

1885
01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:25,719
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I mean, I mean.

1886
01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:30,439
Speaker 2: It's not to say that Josh Allen's not a great quarterback.

1887
01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:33,200
Speaker 2: Of Lamar Jackson's not a great quarterback. Of Joe Burrow's

1888
01:36:33,240 --> 01:36:36,360
Speaker 2: not a great court These are all great quarterbacks. But

1889
01:36:36,439 --> 01:36:41,320
Speaker 2: if you define Patrick Mahomes as a franchise quarterback, no

1890
01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:44,800
Speaker 2: one else can be defined a franchise quarterback because his

1891
01:36:44,920 --> 01:36:48,680
Speaker 2: record is so far and away the best, certainly of

1892
01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:51,800
Speaker 2: any current quarterback in the NFL, but as far as

1893
01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:56,479
Speaker 2: all time rankings, and again he hasn't played a full

1894
01:36:56,560 --> 01:37:01,559
Speaker 2: career yet, so we can't ultimately judge it his final

1895
01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:04,799
Speaker 2: until he actually ends his career. But I can safely

1896
01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:09,080
Speaker 2: say this, if they win the championship for a thirk

1897
01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:16,559
Speaker 2: and secutive year, he stands alone as the quarterback. Through

1898
01:37:16,560 --> 01:37:19,000
Speaker 2: his first eight seasons in the NFL. Remember, his first

1899
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 2: season was one game. He's been to the AFC Championship game.

1900
01:37:23,040 --> 01:37:26,760
Speaker 2: Every single year he's been the starting quarterback. This is

1901
01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:32,639
Speaker 2: his fifth Super Bowl and he wins four, including three

1902
01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:39,360
Speaker 2: in a row. The number one, Number one, that's where

1903
01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:42,440
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes would rank.

1904
01:37:43,760 --> 01:37:45,559
Speaker 3: If they win this game on Sunday.

1905
01:37:45,640 --> 01:37:49,919
Speaker 1: This is kind of all right, so we're defining things differently,

1906
01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:55,640
Speaker 1: and that's okay. But the conversation around what a franchise

1907
01:37:55,720 --> 01:38:00,040
Speaker 1: quarterback is, in my opinion, is more akin to like.

1908
01:38:00,560 --> 01:38:05,760
Speaker 1: So like rectangles can be squares, but not all rectangles

1909
01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:08,360
Speaker 1: are squares, you know what I mean? Like by rule,

1910
01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:11,200
Speaker 1: a square is special. It's different because you know you

1911
01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:14,320
Speaker 1: have four right angles, all sides are equal, they're parallel,

1912
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:17,599
Speaker 1: just like a rectangle is. But it's a special type

1913
01:38:17,600 --> 01:38:20,200
Speaker 1: of rectangle. So if we're going to say a franchise

1914
01:38:20,280 --> 01:38:24,920
Speaker 1: quarterback has to be defined as such, Patrick Mahomes can

1915
01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:28,479
Speaker 1: be included in that definition. But he's a special kind

1916
01:38:28,479 --> 01:38:31,320
Speaker 1: of franchise quarterback. He fits all the rules of a

1917
01:38:31,360 --> 01:38:34,400
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback. He's just doing it better than everyone else.

1918
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:38,479
Speaker 1: So in order to prove that anybody is at the

1919
01:38:38,560 --> 01:38:42,120
Speaker 1: level of a Patrick Mahomes is a ridiculous endeavor because

1920
01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:46,120
Speaker 1: you can't. He's different, he's special, he's in a category

1921
01:38:46,280 --> 01:38:49,759
Speaker 1: unto itself. But to suggest that he's the only franchise

1922
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:53,240
Speaker 1: quarterback I think falls on deaf years with most people, Steve,

1923
01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:59,080
Speaker 1: because I would guess most people's estimation a franchise quarterback

1924
01:38:59,160 --> 01:39:02,519
Speaker 1: is the type of quarterback who you could build a

1925
01:39:02,600 --> 01:39:05,920
Speaker 1: franchise around, a special type of talent who you can

1926
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:09,640
Speaker 1: see a future that includes multiple playoff visits, an opportunity

1927
01:39:09,680 --> 01:39:12,280
Speaker 1: to win a Super Bowl or compete against the best

1928
01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 1: team or teams in the NFL. And so a franchise

1929
01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:19,880
Speaker 1: quarterback to me would be a Josh Allen, would be

1930
01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:23,439
Speaker 1: a Joe Burrow, would be a Justin Herbert, a Trevor

1931
01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:27,519
Speaker 1: Lawrence whose name has diminished in multiple capacities in that

1932
01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:31,280
Speaker 1: conversation due to injury and circumstance, but when he was

1933
01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:36,120
Speaker 1: first drafted he was included amongst that conversation. Agellen hurts

1934
01:39:36,160 --> 01:39:38,960
Speaker 1: even dare I say, because he's been to now two

1935
01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:41,040
Speaker 1: Super Bowl visits, he's done a lot of winning over

1936
01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:43,479
Speaker 1: the course of his career. A quarterback who you can

1937
01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:46,519
Speaker 1: build a franchise around, in my opinion, is a franchise quarterback.

1938
01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:48,879
Speaker 1: And there's about a handful of them in the NFL

1939
01:39:49,200 --> 01:39:52,320
Speaker 1: that absolutely need to be in that discussion. And then

1940
01:39:52,360 --> 01:39:58,639
Speaker 1: there's probably about anywhere between three and five more who

1941
01:39:58,880 --> 01:39:59,919
Speaker 1: you can make arguments.

1942
01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:04,160
Speaker 2: But again, if you're gonna say, all right, here are

1943
01:40:04,160 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 2: the franchise quarterbacks, I mean, we're always talking about.

1944
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:07,679
Speaker 1: Jayde and Daniels.

1945
01:40:07,760 --> 01:40:10,200
Speaker 2: By the way, that was my one prediction that came true,

1946
01:40:10,320 --> 01:40:13,560
Speaker 2: was my prediction of the Eagles blowing out the command.

1947
01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:15,559
Speaker 1: Yeah you did. I mean I predict that. I thought

1948
01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:16,880
Speaker 1: it was going to be a close game, a high

1949
01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:20,280
Speaker 1: scoring game, but I thought the Commander's had a chance.

1950
01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:21,840
Speaker 1: You did, not, you, Sae.

1951
01:40:22,560 --> 01:40:24,920
Speaker 2: I maintained that was going to be a one sided game.

1952
01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:29,360
Speaker 2: And you know, and again, phenomenal rookie season. Jayde Daniels

1953
01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:31,760
Speaker 2: is going to get some nice hardwaars the offensive Rookie

1954
01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:33,200
Speaker 2: of the Year coming up on Thursday.

1955
01:40:33,800 --> 01:40:36,320
Speaker 3: Very exciting player. These are exciting.

1956
01:40:36,479 --> 01:40:39,760
Speaker 2: I love watching Lamar Jackson play Jayden Daniels. I like

1957
01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,840
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, I love Joe Burrow. I love these quarterbacks.

1958
01:40:43,320 --> 01:40:46,759
Speaker 2: But again I can't put their names in the same

1959
01:40:46,920 --> 01:40:51,360
Speaker 2: sentence with Patrick Mahomes. Again this stat that the Chiefs

1960
01:40:51,360 --> 01:40:57,240
Speaker 2: have won an NFL record seventeen consecutive games just decided

1961
01:40:57,280 --> 01:40:59,800
Speaker 2: by one score. So that was the last five games

1962
01:40:59,800 --> 01:41:03,200
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty three, all eleven one score games in

1963
01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:06,719
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four and now the AFC Championship. But seven

1964
01:41:06,720 --> 01:41:09,400
Speaker 2: and t get second of one scoring in what did

1965
01:41:09,439 --> 01:41:13,160
Speaker 2: the How do you do that? You have the quarterback,

1966
01:41:13,320 --> 01:41:15,439
Speaker 2: we only quarterback. We have that level.

1967
01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:18,720
Speaker 1: We have a small generational gap here where we have

1968
01:41:18,800 --> 01:41:24,519
Speaker 1: an apt example for comparison. Tom Brady during his generation, you,

1969
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:27,440
Speaker 1: in your argument, would be the only franchise quarterback.

1970
01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:31,760
Speaker 3: No, because he did lose at some point to.

1971
01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:34,479
Speaker 1: Like Peyton Manning.

1972
01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:37,479
Speaker 2: Okay, who finally did breakthrough beat him and then won

1973
01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:40,479
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl. But there's only other two quarterbacks right now.

1974
01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:43,000
Speaker 2: So you're saying the Russell Wills Tea, Matthew Stafford.

1975
01:41:43,040 --> 01:41:45,040
Speaker 1: Yes, it's about winning a championship. I get it, But

1976
01:41:45,120 --> 01:41:47,479
Speaker 1: the only franchise quarterback in the history of the NFL

1977
01:41:47,520 --> 01:41:50,640
Speaker 1: is Patrick Mahomes. Then oh right now, okay, but but

1978
01:41:50,760 --> 01:41:53,800
Speaker 1: so that's my point. So there was a point where

1979
01:41:53,800 --> 01:41:57,920
Speaker 1: Tom Brady for two decades was appeared in what eleven

1980
01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:01,200
Speaker 1: AFC Championship games. When he was with the New England Patriots,

1981
01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:02,799
Speaker 1: he won six Super.

1982
01:42:02,600 --> 01:42:05,320
Speaker 2: Bowl There were other in the league, but there were

1983
01:42:05,320 --> 01:42:08,040
Speaker 2: other quarterbacks that had won multiple Super Bowls.

1984
01:42:08,120 --> 01:42:11,360
Speaker 3: I mean Ben Roethlisberger won multiple Super Bowls.

1985
01:42:11,080 --> 01:42:12,320
Speaker 1: But Tom Brady was in nine.

1986
01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:14,639
Speaker 2: He's not a franchise quarters had won a Super Bowl.

1987
01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:17,680
Speaker 2: Drew Brees had won a Super Bowl. Paid Manny had

1988
01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:20,439
Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl. So the point was Eli Manny

1989
01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:22,759
Speaker 2: had won a couple of Super Bowls a franchise quarterback.

1990
01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:27,480
Speaker 2: How many quarterbacks currently have won Super Bowls? Matthew Stafford,

1991
01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:33,280
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, and Patrick Mahomes. I get these other quarterbacks

1992
01:42:33,320 --> 01:42:34,679
Speaker 2: have not won a Super Bowl.

1993
01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:37,120
Speaker 1: I get the idea of the argument, but it does

1994
01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:39,479
Speaker 1: kind of fall on deaf years because if you're telling

1995
01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:41,600
Speaker 1: me you can't build a franchise around a guy like

1996
01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:43,040
Speaker 1: Lamar Jacks Cam but if.

1997
01:42:42,920 --> 01:42:44,760
Speaker 2: You want to win a Super Bowls and that the

1998
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:46,000
Speaker 2: goal of every franchise.

1999
01:42:46,080 --> 01:42:49,479
Speaker 1: But yeah, but potential is the way we build teams.

2000
01:42:49,600 --> 01:42:51,639
Speaker 1: Potentially Patrick Mahomes could win.

2001
01:42:51,840 --> 01:42:53,880
Speaker 3: Do you think that Josh Allen is ever going to

2002
01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:54,679
Speaker 3: win a Super Bowl?

2003
01:42:54,920 --> 01:42:58,679
Speaker 1: Yes? I think potentially he could win a super Bowl potentially. Yeah.

2004
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:00,840
Speaker 1: By the way, by the way, the same way I

2005
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:04,800
Speaker 1: feel that potentially this could be Patrick mahomes last Super Bowl. Okay,

2006
01:43:04,880 --> 01:43:07,200
Speaker 1: lets likely, but potentially.

2007
01:43:07,400 --> 01:43:12,599
Speaker 2: Okay, because we're not we're not fortune teller, Steve, No,

2008
01:43:13,360 --> 01:43:15,320
Speaker 2: let me ask well, I'm going to save a question

2009
01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:17,000
Speaker 2: for you on the other side, because first we know,

2010
01:43:17,360 --> 01:43:20,679
Speaker 2: we need to find out what is trending right now.

2011
01:43:22,160 --> 01:43:24,000
Speaker 2: And here's monci hi hi.

2012
01:43:24,360 --> 01:43:28,880
Speaker 10: I am watching this flag football game, which you know

2013
01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:34,160
Speaker 10: what's at least at least watching the the NFL Pro

2014
01:43:34,240 --> 01:43:34,839
Speaker 10: Bowl games.

2015
01:43:34,880 --> 01:43:36,680
Speaker 6: At least I'm watching stars.

2016
01:43:36,920 --> 01:43:39,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, saying like at least no I am,

2017
01:43:39,120 --> 01:43:41,880
Speaker 7: because if I'm going to watch the NBA Slam Dunk contest.

2018
01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:43,960
Speaker 3: Here are many of them. Okay, So here's the deal.

2019
01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:47,720
Speaker 2: So the Pro Bowl rosters were announced, the original Pro

2020
01:43:47,760 --> 01:43:54,040
Speaker 2: Bowl rosters. There were twenty five replacements, right, twenty five replacements.

2021
01:43:54,160 --> 01:43:55,679
Speaker 1: Drake may is in the Pro Bowl.

2022
01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:57,360
Speaker 6: Tyler Huntley is a Pro Bowler.

2023
01:43:57,479 --> 01:43:59,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tyler Helen is a Pro Bowl.

2024
01:43:59,200 --> 01:44:04,000
Speaker 2: And so twenty five replacements for a flag football game?

2025
01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:08,040
Speaker 2: Why why do you have to make any replacements? It's

2026
01:44:08,240 --> 01:44:10,680
Speaker 2: a flag for it's a really rough game. It's it's

2027
01:44:10,720 --> 01:44:11,800
Speaker 2: because you've watched it.

2028
01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:14,880
Speaker 7: The ones that typically you know, decide to not do

2029
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,280
Speaker 7: that are are mad because of how their season ended

2030
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:19,799
Speaker 7: up pruptly. But you know, you get to see Jamar Chase,

2031
01:44:19,920 --> 01:44:21,280
Speaker 7: you get to see Joe Burrow.

2032
01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:22,000
Speaker 6: You're not wrong.

2033
01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:25,559
Speaker 2: Probably the Russell Wilson gets to add a Pro Bowl

2034
01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:27,120
Speaker 2: to his resume this year.

2035
01:44:27,720 --> 01:44:31,320
Speaker 6: I mean, you shouldn't count, right, It should be like, yeah.

2036
01:44:31,360 --> 01:44:33,160
Speaker 2: See, that's the way I try to make my argument

2037
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:35,880
Speaker 2: with my friends on the committee. You look at Pro Bowls, right,

2038
01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:38,840
Speaker 2: like Eli Manning four time Pro Bowler.

2039
01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:39,599
Speaker 1: Not really.

2040
01:44:39,720 --> 01:44:42,360
Speaker 2: He was actually selected to two Pro Bowls and then

2041
01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:44,679
Speaker 2: got in as an alternate twice, which by the way,

2042
01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:48,040
Speaker 2: means he finished no better than fourth in the voting

2043
01:44:48,560 --> 01:44:58,599
Speaker 2: in his own conference. Yeah, I'm antsy Elon Manning, but no,

2044
01:44:58,680 --> 01:44:59,679
Speaker 2: I love Eli Manning.

2045
01:44:59,800 --> 01:45:00,120
Speaker 4: KNA here.

2046
01:45:00,920 --> 01:45:03,160
Speaker 2: I had a chance to share some time with Eli

2047
01:45:03,200 --> 01:45:06,599
Speaker 2: Manning one on one. He is exactly the person that

2048
01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:09,839
Speaker 2: he appears on TV. Oh yeah, exactly. He's a great,

2049
01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:13,200
Speaker 2: great guy. I love Eli Manning on a personal level.

2050
01:45:13,520 --> 01:45:15,760
Speaker 2: I'm not wild about his resume in terms of being

2051
01:45:15,800 --> 01:45:18,920
Speaker 2: a first ballot Hall of Famer, which, as I reported earlier.

2052
01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:19,560
Speaker 3: Will not have.

2053
01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:21,280
Speaker 6: Will not have.

2054
01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:24,439
Speaker 1: I demand a recount. Yes, well, uh.

2055
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:28,519
Speaker 7: Speaking of Paro Bowl to NBA All Star Game, Chris

2056
01:45:28,560 --> 01:45:31,280
Speaker 7: Hanes tweeted that Chris Paul and Victor one Bam are

2057
01:45:31,280 --> 01:45:33,960
Speaker 7: going to partner up and represent the Spurs in the

2058
01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:36,880
Speaker 7: Skills Challenge at the All Star weekend in San Francisco.

2059
01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:39,440
Speaker 6: So I'm happy to see some actual.

2060
01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:42,160
Speaker 3: Names having to Lebron and Bronni in the skills competition.

2061
01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:45,559
Speaker 6: Lebron Lebron has ruined the All Star game. Okay, he

2062
01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:47,600
Speaker 6: doesn't do anything, He just participates in the game. He

2063
01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:48,719
Speaker 6: should have done the slam down.

2064
01:45:48,640 --> 01:45:52,320
Speaker 2: Contested against having him and his son. I think people

2065
01:45:52,320 --> 01:45:54,479
Speaker 2: would have been curious, was he how to They would

2066
01:45:54,479 --> 01:45:59,000
Speaker 2: have embarrassed himself, embarrassed Bronni what in terms of pairing

2067
01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:00,760
Speaker 2: up for this competition.

2068
01:46:01,080 --> 01:46:05,080
Speaker 1: I would assume that the news was broken to him

2069
01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:08,720
Speaker 1: over dinner that the NBA was hosting a skills competition,

2070
01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 1: and he's shocked and still processing the news.

2071
01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:12,439
Speaker 6: That's exactly what happened.

2072
01:46:13,479 --> 01:46:15,680
Speaker 7: It's exactly and that's how he found out about the

2073
01:46:15,680 --> 01:46:19,960
Speaker 7: blockbuster trade at dinner, supposedly where Luka Dancic becomes a

2074
01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:23,320
Speaker 7: Laker Anthony Davis becomes a Maverick. In case you've missed

2075
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:26,560
Speaker 7: some of the press conference today, here is Nico Harrison,

2076
01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:30,200
Speaker 7: MAVs GM talking a little bit about how he kept

2077
01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 7: things close to the chest.

2078
01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:33,599
Speaker 8: We kept it between us. We had to, We had

2079
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,639
Speaker 8: to keep it tight. Jay Kidd didn't know about it.

2080
01:46:37,360 --> 01:46:39,559
Speaker 8: But jk and I are aligned and we talk about

2081
01:46:39,640 --> 01:46:41,960
Speaker 8: archetypes and we talk about the culture that we want

2082
01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:45,000
Speaker 8: to create. So I know the type of players that

2083
01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:48,280
Speaker 8: that he likes without actually talking to him. Hey, would

2084
01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:50,639
Speaker 8: you like you know? So I know that, and JK

2085
01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:53,599
Speaker 8: coached them when they won the championship, So I think

2086
01:46:53,640 --> 01:46:55,720
Speaker 8: when you're aligned with your coach like that, I know

2087
01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:59,280
Speaker 8: the type of players that he likes, and so I

2088
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:03,120
Speaker 8: felt good about it making sense to where we're trying

2089
01:47:03,120 --> 01:47:03,320
Speaker 8: to go.

2090
01:47:03,800 --> 01:47:06,120
Speaker 2: Man, it is the most That is absolutely the most

2091
01:47:06,160 --> 01:47:09,559
Speaker 2: ridiculous comment I've ever heard, especially with Jason Kids sitting

2092
01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:11,720
Speaker 2: there saying, Yeah, I didn't really have to talk to

2093
01:47:11,800 --> 01:47:13,639
Speaker 2: him because I sort of get him.

2094
01:47:13,760 --> 01:47:15,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know what he likes.

2095
01:47:15,560 --> 01:47:19,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Heim, he literally gave the thumb when he

2096
01:47:19,080 --> 01:47:22,160
Speaker 1: was referencing j Kidd. He's literally thumbing. I like, and

2097
01:47:22,200 --> 01:47:24,479
Speaker 1: then this idiot over here. I didn't tell him a

2098
01:47:24,479 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 1: word about it. But he's cool. He's cool.

2099
01:47:27,040 --> 01:47:28,160
Speaker 6: Oh, let me tell you he's not cool.

2100
01:47:28,200 --> 01:47:32,439
Speaker 7: You can see it as we described teething looks absolutely still, Yeah,

2101
01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:33,559
Speaker 7: poor Jason Kidd.

2102
01:47:33,640 --> 01:47:35,400
Speaker 6: One NBA game going on right now.

2103
01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:37,960
Speaker 7: The Bulls are beating the Pistons twenty nine to twenty five,

2104
01:47:38,040 --> 01:47:40,920
Speaker 7: late in the first quarter, about to start. The Mavericks

2105
01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:44,280
Speaker 7: we're playing against the Cavaliers, so we'll see how they

2106
01:47:44,520 --> 01:47:47,840
Speaker 7: do today. In Men's college Hoops, number eighteen, Illinois came

2107
01:47:47,840 --> 01:47:50,760
Speaker 7: back to defeed Ohio State eighty seven to seventy nine.

01:47:56,560 --> 01:47:59,160
Speaker 7: McElroy is at the top of the leader board at

2111
01:47:59,200 --> 01:48:02,879
Speaker 7: the Pebble Beach Pro Am. He's sixteen under part overall,

2112
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:04,160
Speaker 7: tied with Sepstraca.

2113
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:05,680
Speaker 6: Back to you guys.

2114

2116
01:48:13,160 --> 01:48:17,360
Speaker 2: He is addicted to women's collegiate basketball for obvious reasons

2117
01:48:17,400 --> 01:48:22,280
Speaker 2: after the amazing success of Caitlin Clark, and Iowa looks

2118
01:48:22,320 --> 01:48:23,639
Speaker 2: like they may pull this thing off.

2119
01:48:24,240 --> 01:48:26,439
Speaker 1: They are still two minutes and forty seconds here.

2120
01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:29,120
Speaker 2: They have a nine point lead over fourth rank USC.

2121
01:48:29,400 --> 01:48:31,880
Speaker 2: Iowa was unranked this year. But this is a game

2122
01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:36,840
Speaker 2: after the game where they're gonna honor uh cal Gonner

2123
01:48:37,240 --> 01:48:40,240
Speaker 2: in her number, and David Letterman is there, you know,

2124
01:48:40,320 --> 01:48:43,479
Speaker 2: obviously a big Iowa guy, and so it's gonna be

2125
01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:45,360
Speaker 2: a big ceremony. But yeah, they got off to an

2126
01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:48,160
Speaker 2: incredible start in this game. Nineteen oh one s He

2127
01:48:48,320 --> 01:48:50,320
Speaker 2: took the lead and then all of a sudden looking

2128
01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:52,040
Speaker 2: back Iowa.

2129
01:48:52,200 --> 01:48:53,679
Speaker 1: Well they're in pretty good shape right now.

2130
01:48:53,720 --> 01:48:56,120
Speaker 11: So yeah, I mean, well in twelve and a half

2131
01:48:56,160 --> 01:48:58,000
Speaker 11: point dogs, I did not expect this. I did not

2132
01:48:58,040 --> 01:48:59,040
Speaker 11: expect them to be competable.

2133
01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:02,800
Speaker 2: I'm stay not paying to me about my undefeated number

2134
01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:04,719
Speaker 2: one rank UCLA bruins Man.

2135
01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:05,960
Speaker 1: Undefeated.

2136
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:08,879
Speaker 11: I'm just one of everybody else who was just completely

2137
01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:11,720
Speaker 11: ignoring UCLA and how good they are. They're undefeated. They

2138
01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:14,720
Speaker 11: got Lauren Betts as their center. She just dominates, and

2139
01:49:14,760 --> 01:49:16,400
Speaker 11: so they're gonna win the national championship.

2140
01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:17,400
Speaker 1: Be like yawn.

2141
01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,880
Speaker 2: The last time UCLA won the Ladies Championship was nineteen

2142
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:23,519
Speaker 2: seventy eight. My dear friend Ann Myers, and they are

2143
01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:26,719
Speaker 2: her voted. Billy Moore was the great Hall of Fame coach.

2144
01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:29,360
Speaker 11: UCLA needs the fans to show up like they are

2145
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,719
Speaker 11: at Carver Hawky Arena today and it's a packed house

2146
01:49:31,720 --> 01:49:33,599
Speaker 11: and uclely deserves those those crowds.

2147
01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:35,840
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I agree with you on the out there.

2148
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:38,120
Speaker 2: I'm not going to get it because life's a little

2149
01:49:38,120 --> 01:49:38,880
Speaker 2: different in Iowa.

2150
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:39,679
Speaker 1: It is, Steve.

2151
01:49:39,960 --> 01:49:42,120
Speaker 11: I went to my first game at poly Pavilion to

2152
01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:45,200
Speaker 11: take in Iowa, losing horribly to the UCLA.

2153
01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:47,400
Speaker 2: Men, and what did you think of did you pay

2154
01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:50,160
Speaker 2: homage or the statue of John Wooden outside of Pauli.

2155
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:53,120
Speaker 11: I loved my trip to Pauli. The game itself was

2156
01:49:53,120 --> 01:49:55,240
Speaker 11: wretched if you were an IO fan in attendance, but

2157
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:57,639
Speaker 11: my first time there and it was it was great.

2158
01:49:57,640 --> 01:50:00,360
Speaker 1: I got free tickets and so meet you with feel

2159
01:50:00,439 --> 01:50:03,080
Speaker 1: the vibe of John Wooden. I could, I could could.

2160
01:50:03,280 --> 01:50:07,240
Speaker 11: It was a poultrygeist, a floating above the air material.

2161
01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:08,320
Speaker 1: Is the wooden statue? Man out of him?

2162
01:50:08,360 --> 01:50:12,320
Speaker 2: The wooden statue made of rubber. No, it's not rubber.

2163
01:50:12,800 --> 01:50:18,559
Speaker 2: Wouldn't rubber. It's a statue like everything wooden. But it's

2164
01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:22,040
Speaker 2: not a wooden statue. You said it's a wooden statue.

2165
01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:24,639
Speaker 2: It is confusing. It is a little confusing. I remember

2166
01:50:24,720 --> 01:50:27,040
Speaker 2: back in the days when Coach wouldn't he had he

2167
01:50:27,080 --> 01:50:29,880
Speaker 2: had a seat at games and he was there quite frequently,

2168
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:33,519
Speaker 2: and he never said no to people like people obviously

2169
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:35,240
Speaker 2: would come up to you know, can I get an

2170
01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:36,559
Speaker 2: autograph Coach Wooden?

2171
01:50:36,560 --> 01:50:36,920
Speaker 1: Blah blah.

2172
01:50:37,040 --> 01:50:39,559
Speaker 2: He was like in his nineties at this point, and

2173
01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:41,559
Speaker 2: he was patient. There was like a little line and

2174
01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:42,639
Speaker 2: he would never say no.

2175
01:50:42,880 --> 01:50:45,240
Speaker 1: He was just why why did they never change the

2176
01:50:45,320 --> 01:50:48,080
Speaker 1: name of it. It's Polly Pavilion wins in a like, Uh, well,

2177
01:50:48,120 --> 01:50:50,040
Speaker 1: the Polly uh Wooden Arena.

2178
01:50:50,360 --> 01:50:52,439
Speaker 2: Polly was the one that paid for the original arena

2179
01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:54,120
Speaker 2: under that's why he got his name on it. But

2180
01:50:54,360 --> 01:50:57,439
Speaker 2: it's Wooden Court. By the way, it says guy named

2181
01:50:58,840 --> 01:51:01,519
Speaker 2: it's called Nell and Wooden Court. Noell, of course his

2182
01:51:01,640 --> 01:51:04,400
Speaker 2: late wife. So it's Nell and John Wooden Court. Same question,

2183
01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:08,960
Speaker 2: what's the Wooden Court made of? Yeah, exactly, I haven't

2184
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:13,880
Speaker 2: lied to Okay, all right, this this whole quarterback thing

2185
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:14,640
Speaker 2: is driving.

2186
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:16,400
Speaker 1: Me out, But that should be driving you nuts. It

2187
01:51:16,680 --> 01:51:17,960
Speaker 1: should be very clear to you.

2188
01:51:17,920 --> 01:51:22,360
Speaker 2: That, okay, your standards on how I define a franchise quarterback.

2189
01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:23,680
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this question though.

2190
01:51:23,720 --> 01:51:25,960
Speaker 2: Sure, okay, So I imagine there are only two other

2191
01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:28,400
Speaker 2: active quarterbacks who have actually led their team to a

2192
01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:32,960
Speaker 2: Super Bowl victory Russell Wilson, who, by the way, quick

2193
01:51:33,040 --> 01:51:36,360
Speaker 2: side note, do not expect Pete Carroll to sign Russell Wilson.

2194
01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:38,520
Speaker 1: They didn't have the best relationship.

2195
01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:41,920
Speaker 2: Believe me, that was kind of unceremonious. How that split.

2196
01:51:42,120 --> 01:51:44,840
Speaker 2: That's not happening. Russell Wilson is not going to be

2197
01:51:44,880 --> 01:51:47,040
Speaker 2: a race. I think they're far more apt to sign

2198
01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:50,400
Speaker 2: Jameis Winston than they are Russell Wilson at quarterback.

2199
01:51:50,439 --> 01:51:52,280
Speaker 1: If they're going to go that direction, what about Flacco?

2200
01:51:53,160 --> 01:51:56,759
Speaker 2: He's the and that's not Flacco, but yeah, Russell Wilson,

2201
01:51:56,800 --> 01:51:59,560
Speaker 2: and obviously have Matthew Stafford, who, by the way, is

2202
01:51:59,600 --> 01:52:02,960
Speaker 2: another The Rams are hinting that they may not bring

2203
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:06,160
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford back. He wants to play again, but he

2204
01:52:06,200 --> 01:52:08,640
Speaker 2: doesn't have any guaranteed money in his current deal in

2205
01:52:08,680 --> 01:52:11,760
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, which obviously he would want it guaranteed.

2206
01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:15,840
Speaker 3: And the Rams are like, let me think about that.

2207
01:52:16,680 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna think about that one. Yeah, all right, but

2208
01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:20,400
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, yeah, yeah, yeah.

2209
01:52:20,439 --> 01:52:24,439
Speaker 2: If Jalen Hurts wins this game, if Jalen Hurts becomes

2210
01:52:24,479 --> 01:52:29,559
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl winning quarterback, where does he stand with

2211
01:52:29,640 --> 01:52:33,000
Speaker 2: the Lamar Jacksons, the Josh Allens, the Joe Burrows.

2212
01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:34,519
Speaker 1: Does he go.

2213
01:52:34,560 --> 01:52:38,080
Speaker 2: Above those guys because he's now won a Super Bowl,

2214
01:52:38,120 --> 01:52:40,519
Speaker 2: been to two Super Bowls, played very well in that

2215
01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:42,639
Speaker 2: first game. He's going to obviously have to play well

2216
01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:44,200
Speaker 2: in this game if they're going to stand a chance

2217
01:52:44,240 --> 01:52:48,559
Speaker 2: against the Chiefs. Where exactly would he stand amongst current

2218
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:50,280
Speaker 2: quarterbacks In your opinion, he.

2219
01:52:50,280 --> 01:52:55,160
Speaker 1: Would be a top ten quarterback. Top ten, of course five. Well,

2220
01:52:55,240 --> 01:52:58,360
Speaker 1: I mean, let's talk about the top five. Mahomes number

2221
01:52:58,360 --> 01:53:02,160
Speaker 1: one with a bullet, Okay, then you have Alan Lamar Burrow.

2222
01:53:02,760 --> 01:53:05,760
Speaker 1: Those are the next three names, and then after that,

2223
01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean it would have to be either Hurts, Herbert Daniels.

2224
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:17,439
Speaker 1: I'm talking about just talent. I'm just talking about Okay,

2225
01:53:18,160 --> 01:53:20,639
Speaker 1: now winning, I'm we want to talk about how.

2226
01:53:20,600 --> 01:53:24,120
Speaker 2: Cat Justin Herbert, who has played horrific football. He just

2227
01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:27,960
Speaker 2: had a four interception game in a playoff horrific. He

2228
01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:30,599
Speaker 2: threw more interceptions in a playoff game than he did

2229
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:31,559
Speaker 2: the entire year.

2230
01:53:31,640 --> 01:53:33,760
Speaker 1: Did we watch the game? I did watch.

2231
01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:40,800
Speaker 2: A one interception was not his fault, the pig six

2232
01:53:40,880 --> 01:53:42,000
Speaker 2: he overthrew, did he not?

2233
01:53:42,840 --> 01:53:45,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he had his toe stepped on by by

2234
01:53:45,560 --> 01:53:47,519
Speaker 1: his left tackle Rashawn Slater.

2235
01:53:48,040 --> 01:53:52,400
Speaker 2: Look telling me you would not put Jalen Hurts ahead

2236
01:53:52,400 --> 01:53:53,920
Speaker 2: of is Jalen Hurts.

2237
01:53:53,800 --> 01:53:55,840
Speaker 1: Some more talented quarterback than Justin Herbert. I don't know.

2238
01:53:55,880 --> 01:53:58,080
Speaker 2: He has a better resume, he has a better record,

2239
01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:00,760
Speaker 2: he has a better record, He's won more games.

2240
01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:03,840
Speaker 1: Just been the two Super Bowls? How is Herbert in

2241
01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:08,680
Speaker 1: the conversation Jalen Hurts a more talented quarterback than Justin

2242
01:54:08,720 --> 01:54:09,960
Speaker 1: Herbert if.

2243
01:54:09,920 --> 01:54:12,360
Speaker 3: You were starting it, I mean like throwing a football.

2244
01:54:12,479 --> 01:54:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean throwing a football, I mean processing speed, I

2245
01:54:15,000 --> 01:54:18,599
Speaker 1: mean winning games with his ability. You're telling me, if

2246
01:54:18,600 --> 01:54:20,760
Speaker 1: you were starting a football team today and I gave

2247
01:54:20,800 --> 01:54:23,559
Speaker 1: you the choice between starting it with Jalen Hurts or

2248
01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:25,960
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, you take Jalen Hurts over Justin Herbert.

2249
01:54:25,960 --> 01:54:29,679
Speaker 2: Herbert's stock is falling. I'm having a question. I would

2250
01:54:29,720 --> 01:54:31,559
Speaker 2: take Jalen Hurts. He's had a better career.

2251
01:54:31,600 --> 01:54:33,640
Speaker 1: I would not, I would not, I would take Justin.

2252
01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:36,840
Speaker 3: Know me, I've always been a Jalen I know you have.

2253
01:54:37,320 --> 01:54:39,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying this. I'm saying, since some Johnny come lately

2254
01:54:39,920 --> 01:54:43,560
Speaker 1: on Jalen, this isn't. This isn't to tear down Jalen Hurts.

2255
01:54:43,560 --> 01:54:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's in the conversation in that next Okay,

2256
01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:49,560
Speaker 1: let me have a name. Let me ask you this.

2257
01:54:49,800 --> 01:54:52,440
Speaker 2: If you were to have this deal on the table,

2258
01:54:52,480 --> 01:54:54,560
Speaker 2: would you trade Jalen Hurts for.

2259
01:54:54,680 --> 01:54:55,960
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert in a heartbeat?

2260
01:54:56,200 --> 01:55:01,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, in a heartbeat, okay, Justin Herbert, then as the

2261
01:55:01,400 --> 01:55:04,240
Speaker 2: Eagles quarterback played like he has in the playoffs as

2262
01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:06,280
Speaker 2: a Charger quarterback, you'll be okay with you.

2263
01:55:06,240 --> 01:55:08,920
Speaker 5: Take the risk. Justin Herbert can make throws the Jalen

2264
01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:13,000
Speaker 5: Hurts can only dream of bingo and I I am

2265
01:55:13,000 --> 01:55:16,040
Speaker 5: a big Jalen Hurts proved me wrong with his performance

2266
01:55:16,080 --> 01:55:17,320
Speaker 5: on Sunday in the NFC Title Game.

2267
01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:20,240
Speaker 3: It also proved you wrong in the Super Bowl two

2268
01:55:20,320 --> 01:55:20,680
Speaker 3: years ago.

2269
01:55:20,880 --> 01:55:22,400
Speaker 5: Well, no, two years ago, I thought he was the

2270
01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:24,360
Speaker 5: best player on the field, and then ever since then

2271
01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:25,280
Speaker 5: he's been okay.

2272
01:55:25,320 --> 01:55:28,000
Speaker 2: But right now that they're playing big games against so

2273
01:55:28,040 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 2: if he wins the Super Bowl and he plays as

2274
01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:32,800
Speaker 2: well as he did two years ago, maybe even walks

2275
01:55:32,800 --> 01:55:35,120
Speaker 2: off with the Super Bowl MVP, you'd still make that.

2276
01:55:35,120 --> 01:55:39,440
Speaker 1: Trade, buddy, Buddy, Yeah, okay, I you.

2277
01:55:39,360 --> 01:55:42,120
Speaker 5: Know what I You imagine Justin Herbert with the talent

2278
01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:45,360
Speaker 5: that Jalen Hurts has around him, like AJ Brown divine

2279
01:55:45,840 --> 01:55:48,240
Speaker 5: offensive line. That offensive line been.

2280
01:55:48,160 --> 01:55:50,440
Speaker 1: The biggest problem for Justin Herbert his entire career. Is

2281
01:55:51,640 --> 01:55:53,840
Speaker 1: his first round pick. They have first round picks all

2282
01:55:53,880 --> 01:55:57,080
Speaker 1: across that front line. Their offensive one has been so

2283
01:55:57,480 --> 01:56:00,360
Speaker 1: slater called I mean with injuries.

2284
01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:03,280
Speaker 3: And they haven't been playing. He had no center last week.

2285
01:56:03,960 --> 01:56:07,200
Speaker 1: Well, yeah they were they that was one game that way,

2286
01:56:07,280 --> 01:56:10,520
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game, and they put up fifty five points. Yeah,

2287
01:56:10,520 --> 01:56:12,040
Speaker 1: because they had a game with no center.

2288
01:56:12,480 --> 01:56:14,040
Speaker 5: Because watching game defense.

2289
01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:14,960
Speaker 1: I was about to say, they have a guy named

2290
01:56:15,000 --> 01:56:17,320
Speaker 1: Sakwa Barkley riff almost one hundred and fifty yards.

2291
01:56:17,320 --> 01:56:19,640
Speaker 2: Remember, as all you guys are literally singing about the

2292
01:56:19,640 --> 01:56:21,120
Speaker 2: Commanders like, oh, that's gonna.

2293
01:56:20,880 --> 01:56:22,680
Speaker 12: Be a tight Oh by the way, by the way,

2294
01:56:22,760 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 12: Jena Daniels also, I would take him over Jail and

2295
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:27,560
Speaker 12: Hurts if we were having an open draft or a

2296
01:56:27,560 --> 01:56:32,320
Speaker 12: trade conversation. I'll tell you right now Eagles were like, hey,

2297
01:56:32,320 --> 01:56:33,680
Speaker 12: we're traded for Jada Daniels.

2298
01:56:33,680 --> 01:56:35,240
Speaker 1: I'd be like, you guys are genius.

2299
01:56:35,440 --> 01:56:37,440
Speaker 2: Well when when when Hurts is the NBA of the

2300
01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:39,960
Speaker 2: Super Bowl and you're like, d you just want.

2301
01:56:39,840 --> 01:56:42,400

01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:27,880
Speaker 2: hour of the first day of red Zone Radio, she

2315
01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:30,840
Speaker 2: was like, Okay, this is this is way too much.

2316
01:57:30,920 --> 01:57:31,600
Speaker 1: It's not fair.

2317
01:57:31,720 --> 01:57:34,360
Speaker 3: But then, you know, like everything else, you slowed things

2318
01:57:34,440 --> 01:57:36,960
Speaker 3: down and it becomes you.

2319
01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:39,360
Speaker 1: Get into a routine, get into a like all of us.

2320
01:57:39,360 --> 01:57:40,920
Speaker 1: She was baptized in a fire.

2321
01:57:41,320 --> 01:57:43,840
Speaker 2: But I mean, it's just amazing year after year how

2322
01:57:43,960 --> 01:57:45,520
Speaker 2: quickly the football season goes.

2323
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:48,600
Speaker 1: As quick as it comes, it leaves us. It just

2324
01:57:48,920 --> 01:57:52,000
Speaker 1: absolutely like a thief in the night, thief in the night.

2325
01:57:52,160 --> 01:57:53,240
Speaker 1: And then so.

2326
01:57:54,960 --> 01:57:59,640
Speaker 2: As we turn the page, uh to our focus on basketball. Okay,

2327
01:57:59,680 --> 01:58:02,200
Speaker 2: by the way, it's much easier for me to get

2328
01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:05,840
Speaker 2: into college basketball when my UCLA Bruins irrelevant, they've now won.

2329
01:58:05,760 --> 01:58:07,600
Speaker 1: Five in a row. They're actually on a heater.

2330
01:58:07,760 --> 01:58:10,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they're going to there, They're going to be

2331
01:58:10,120 --> 01:58:11,760
Speaker 2: in the tournament. Now, just give me to the dam

2332
01:58:11,880 --> 01:58:14,080
Speaker 2: in the Big ten tournament. Well, they'll be in the Big.

2333
01:58:13,960 --> 01:58:16,800
Speaker 11: Ten tournament and they'll be that and this not always

2334
01:58:16,840 --> 01:58:18,840
Speaker 11: given these days, in the bottom three of the league,

2335
01:58:18,880 --> 01:58:19,480
Speaker 11: you will not make.

2336
01:58:19,400 --> 01:58:24,240
Speaker 1: It, which is amazing that they are now the Bruins

2337
01:58:24,480 --> 01:58:26,760
Speaker 1: historically part of the Big Ten. They are.

2338
01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:29,240
Speaker 3: I still haven't gotten used to that. It just seems weird,

2339
01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:29,440
Speaker 3: you know.

2340
01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:31,920

Speaker 1: Oregon State watching and Washington State the back day.

2343
01:58:36,520 --> 01:58:39,440
Speaker 2: But this story that we obviously opened the show with

2344
01:58:39,520 --> 01:58:42,600
Speaker 2: and is going to be the biggest story for several days,

2345
01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:45,320
Speaker 2: especially now with some of the comments by the cham

2346
01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:48,440
Speaker 2: of the Mavericks, who just unreal.

2347
01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:52,960

Speaker 1: general manager of the Dallas matt.

2349
01:58:54,880 --> 01:58:57,120

Speaker 1: it is it is. It is absolutely bananas. What we

2353
01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:06,680
Speaker 1: heard from a front office, a member of the front

2354
01:59:06,680 --> 01:59:10,600
Speaker 1: office with one of the thirty NBA teams actually uttered

2355
01:59:10,640 --> 01:59:11,600
Speaker 1: into a microphone.

2356
01:59:11,640 --> 01:59:17,160
Speaker 2: Well, the idea, the idea that he and Rob Polenka

2357
01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:24,400
Speaker 2: had been in conversation for weeks. Nobody these, not one person,

2358
01:59:24,680 --> 01:59:28,040
Speaker 2: not Lebron, not Jason Kidd.

2359
01:59:27,960 --> 01:59:30,400
Speaker 1: Nobody in the world.

2360
01:59:31,760 --> 01:59:37,760
Speaker 2: Was privy of this conversation ongoing. In Harrison's words, weeks. Yeah,

2361
01:59:38,000 --> 01:59:41,280
Speaker 2: weeks between he and Rob Polinka, and we had to

2362
01:59:41,360 --> 01:59:45,800
Speaker 2: keep it, decide to keep it under wraps. How ridiculous

2363
01:59:45,920 --> 01:59:49,120
Speaker 2: is that comment? Well, we'll tell you on the other side, plus.

02:02:22,680 --> 02:02:26,360
Speaker 2: In the meantime, as we woke up this morning, nobody

2414
02:02:26,400 --> 02:02:30,000
Speaker 2: was talking about football. No, no, the only story that

2415
02:02:30,160 --> 02:02:33,360
Speaker 2: anybody's been talking about, and rightfully so, because it was

2416
02:02:33,440 --> 02:02:38,120
Speaker 2: a history making trade. Never in the history of the

2417
02:02:38,240 --> 02:02:44,280
Speaker 2: NBA had two players coming off all NBA seasons had

2418
02:02:44,320 --> 02:02:48,000
Speaker 2: been traded for each other mid season the next year.

2419
02:02:48,600 --> 02:02:49,720
Speaker 1: It never happened before.

2420
02:02:49,960 --> 02:02:53,280
Speaker 2: But I have me yesterday as Luka Doncic and Anthony

2421
02:02:53,360 --> 02:02:57,160
Speaker 2: Davis exchange uniforms. But it wasn't so much the trade,

2422
02:02:57,200 --> 02:03:01,560
Speaker 2: which was shocking enough. It's all how what down, Like

2423
02:03:01,920 --> 02:03:05,480
Speaker 2: not a hint of any talk about any buzz that

2424
02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:09,680
Speaker 2: Luca doncs was on the trade block, that only Sham's

2425
02:03:09,760 --> 02:03:13,040
Speaker 2: knew about it, Like he's the only guy with the

2426
02:03:13,200 --> 02:03:16,760
Speaker 2: hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of NBA insiders, only.

2427
02:03:16,560 --> 02:03:19,960
Speaker 6: One in the world world.

2428
02:03:20,720 --> 02:03:22,800
Speaker 1: Seem to have the insight on that deal. Yep.

2429
02:03:23,240 --> 02:03:26,440
Speaker 2: And that the only two people that actually knew anything

2430
02:03:26,600 --> 02:03:32,320
Speaker 2: was going on on the entire planet apparently were the

2431
02:03:32,360 --> 02:03:36,200
Speaker 2: gms of these teams. That's right, not the coaches, not

2432
02:03:36,320 --> 02:03:39,760
Speaker 2: the players. No nobody else in the.

2433
02:03:39,520 --> 02:03:42,120
Speaker 3: World knew except these two gms.

2434
02:03:42,120 --> 02:03:44,520
Speaker 1: Well, and you know what's fascinating, And the Lakers have

2435
02:03:44,680 --> 02:03:48,560
Speaker 1: released their first public commentary about this, and we could

2436
02:03:48,600 --> 02:03:50,640
Speaker 1: read that in a little bit. Here is we've only

2437
02:03:50,680 --> 02:03:54,560
Speaker 1: so far heard in person from one side of this.

2438
02:03:55,280 --> 02:03:59,600
Speaker 1: If you are going to believe, which if you're you're

2439
02:03:59,680 --> 02:04:03,600
Speaker 1: reading chapter and verse from the Gospel of Nico Harrison,

2440
02:04:04,360 --> 02:04:07,720
Speaker 1: if you're going to believe that only two people on

2441
02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:11,960
Speaker 1: planet Earth knew that there was a potentiality of Luka

2442
02:04:12,040 --> 02:04:16,320
Speaker 1: Doncic being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony

2443
02:04:16,400 --> 02:04:20,520
Speaker 1: Davis in return. Well, here is one of the two

2444
02:04:20,640 --> 02:04:24,240
Speaker 1: voices who were the only two potentially privy to the

2445
02:04:24,320 --> 02:04:28,760
Speaker 1: earliest of these conversations, Nico Harrison, the general manager of

2446
02:04:28,800 --> 02:04:30,040
Speaker 1: your Dallas Mavericks.

2447
02:04:30,480 --> 02:04:34,520
Speaker 8: Trades don't happen at the smallest level without stuff getting out,

2448
02:04:35,440 --> 02:04:37,720
Speaker 8: and Rob and I were able to have, you know,

2449
02:04:37,840 --> 02:04:41,520
Speaker 8: really intense conversations over the course of you know, three

2450
02:04:41,600 --> 02:04:44,440
Speaker 8: or four weeks. That started out as a coffee that

2451
02:04:44,720 --> 02:04:47,040
Speaker 8: you know, it was more Hey, would you ever?

2452
02:04:47,720 --> 02:04:48,200
Speaker 7: I don't know?

2453
02:04:48,280 --> 02:04:49,440
Speaker 8: Would I let me think of?

2454
02:04:49,600 --> 02:04:49,800
Speaker 10: You know?

2455
02:04:49,840 --> 02:04:52,760
Speaker 8: And then it built up on that, and you know,

2456
02:04:52,840 --> 02:04:55,120
Speaker 8: we we kept it between us. We had to, we

2457
02:04:55,160 --> 02:04:58,320
Speaker 8: had to keep it tight. Jay Kidd didn't know about it.

2458
02:04:59,040 --> 02:05:00,920
Speaker 8: But Jake Kid and I are aligned and we talk

2459
02:05:00,960 --> 02:05:03,480
Speaker 8: about archetypes and we talk about the culture that we

2460
02:05:03,520 --> 02:05:05,919
Speaker 8: want to create. So I know the type of players

2461
02:05:05,920 --> 02:05:09,640
Speaker 8: that that he likes without actually talking to him. Hey

2462
02:05:09,760 --> 02:05:10,280
Speaker 8: would you like?

2463
02:05:10,640 --> 02:05:10,840
Speaker 2: You know?

2464
02:05:10,880 --> 02:05:13,160
Speaker 8: So I know that and JK coached them when they

2465
02:05:13,160 --> 02:05:15,960
Speaker 8: won a championship. So so I think when you're aligned

2466
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:17,840
Speaker 8: with your coach like that, I know the type of

2467
02:05:17,880 --> 02:05:21,800
Speaker 8: players that he likes, and so I felt good about

2468
02:05:22,400 --> 02:05:25,000
Speaker 8: it making sense to where we're trying to go.

2469
02:05:26,160 --> 02:05:28,840
Speaker 2: My followuped him is, Okay, you you know the kind

2470
02:05:28,840 --> 02:05:30,480
Speaker 2: of players that your coach likes.

2471
02:05:30,480 --> 02:05:31,920
Speaker 3: Does that mean he didn't like Doncic?

2472
02:05:34,680 --> 02:05:39,840
Speaker 2: I mean, you know who he likes, right, So you're

2473
02:05:39,960 --> 02:05:43,480
Speaker 2: sure that he likes Anthony Davis better than Luka Doncic,

2474
02:05:44,640 --> 02:05:46,680
Speaker 2: I mean that would be an obvious follow up because

2475
02:05:46,720 --> 02:05:49,720
Speaker 2: you just said I know who he likes. By the way,

2476
02:05:49,760 --> 02:05:54,720
Speaker 2: Headline USA Today, Jason Kidd looks absolutely baffled as Nico

2477
02:05:54,800 --> 02:05:58,400
Speaker 2: Harrison explained to Luka Doncic strait and that is if

2478
02:05:58,440 --> 02:06:04,760
Speaker 2: you see the visual, he's just like what happened here.

2479
02:06:06,400 --> 02:06:09,680
Speaker 1: So let's uh, let's hear more. Yes, and this is

2480
02:06:09,720 --> 02:06:15,320
Speaker 1: from Nico Harrison, the general manager of the Dallas Mavericks,

2481
02:06:15,400 --> 02:06:16,800
Speaker 1: explaining this trade further.

2482
02:06:17,320 --> 02:06:20,720
Speaker 11: Did you have any indication from him or his representation

2483
02:06:20,880 --> 02:06:25,040
Speaker 11: that he was going to opt out or not take

2484
02:06:25,080 --> 02:06:26,440
Speaker 11: the extension or anything like that.

2485
02:06:26,960 --> 02:06:29,879
Speaker 8: No, not at all, Not at all, nothing nothing verbally

2486
02:06:30,360 --> 02:06:31,880
Speaker 8: that would It would leave me to believe that.

2487
02:06:32,920 --> 02:06:35,839
Speaker 4: Why would the super messpees have pull decision on your end?

2488
02:06:36,200 --> 02:06:38,280
Speaker 8: Oh no, it's it's not a matter of it being

2489
02:06:38,280 --> 02:06:40,760
Speaker 8: a difficult decision. It's a matter of, you know, once

2490
02:06:40,800 --> 02:06:42,720
Speaker 8: you put that out there, they accept or they don't.

2491
02:06:42,720 --> 02:06:44,720
Speaker 8: And at that point you're, you know, you kind of

2492
02:06:44,760 --> 02:06:47,240
Speaker 8: have you're on the clock again.

2493
02:06:47,440 --> 02:06:50,600
Speaker 2: My father would why would you why were you doing

2494
02:06:50,640 --> 02:06:52,680
Speaker 2: this without telling your coach?

2495
02:06:53,000 --> 02:06:56,360
Speaker 3: Why why would you keep the head coach out of

2496
02:06:56,400 --> 02:06:56,920
Speaker 3: the loop?

2497
02:06:57,520 --> 02:07:01,040
Speaker 2: When you are trading away your twenty five, your old superstar,

2498
02:07:01,200 --> 02:07:03,320
Speaker 2: why would you not want him.

2499
02:07:04,840 --> 02:07:10,760
Speaker 1: To know? My question would be, are you certain? Are

2500
02:07:10,800 --> 02:07:15,440
Speaker 1: you certain that the only two people who knew that

2501
02:07:15,560 --> 02:07:19,640
Speaker 1: this trade could potentially happen were you and Rob Polinka?

2502
02:07:19,920 --> 02:07:23,680
Speaker 1: Or were there any other voices who helped the two

2503
02:07:23,720 --> 02:07:27,280
Speaker 1: of you get to the bottom of whether or not

2504
02:07:27,360 --> 02:07:29,360
Speaker 1: this was a good trade, whether or not this was

2505
02:07:29,440 --> 02:07:32,680
Speaker 1: the right trade. You're telling me it was just you

2506
02:07:32,720 --> 02:07:37,240
Speaker 1: and Rob, well two opinions. In arguably the biggest trade

2507
02:07:37,280 --> 02:07:41,400
Speaker 1: in NBA history. You're telling us that only this would

2508
02:07:41,400 --> 02:07:44,000
Speaker 1: be my follow up. You're telling us that only two

2509
02:07:44,080 --> 02:07:46,240
Speaker 1: people we're in on this conversation.

2510
02:07:46,520 --> 02:07:50,680
Speaker 2: Are you sure, Nico Well, think about where Nico Harrison

2511
02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:54,040
Speaker 2: has put Rob Polinka. So, now that Harrison has said

2512
02:07:54,080 --> 02:07:56,640
Speaker 2: we were the only two people involved, now Polenka's got

2513
02:07:56,640 --> 02:08:00,920
Speaker 2: to answer questions like so, according to Niko Harrison, you

2514
02:08:01,160 --> 02:08:03,680
Speaker 2: were the only two people involved. Why did you keep

2515
02:08:03,720 --> 02:08:07,000
Speaker 2: this from JJ Reddick, your head coach. Why did you

2516
02:08:07,120 --> 02:08:11,160
Speaker 2: keep this from Lebron James? Why did you decide to

2517
02:08:11,520 --> 02:08:15,560
Speaker 2: not tell anybody? Because that's what Nico Harrison said, is

2518
02:08:15,560 --> 02:08:19,080
Speaker 2: that you two did this with no one else knowledgeable

2519
02:08:19,200 --> 02:08:21,520
Speaker 2: and so Polenka is going to have to answer those

2520
02:08:21,600 --> 02:08:24,520
Speaker 2: questions based on the comments by Nico Harrison.

2521
02:08:25,000 --> 02:08:27,920
Speaker 13: Oh man, I'll tell you this is and by the way,

2522
02:08:27,920 --> 02:08:31,400
Speaker 13: if Polinka says, well, that's not exactly the way it

2523
02:08:31,440 --> 02:08:35,160
Speaker 13: went down, this is one of one of the like, okay,

2524
02:08:35,320 --> 02:08:36,400
Speaker 13: so here's the problem.

2525
02:08:36,600 --> 02:08:39,680
Speaker 1: This what I do believe that more people knew that

2526
02:08:39,760 --> 02:08:42,000
Speaker 1: this was going to happen. That's safe to say. There's

2527
02:08:42,040 --> 02:08:44,560
Speaker 1: no question in my mind that Luca was in on it.

2528
02:08:44,640 --> 02:08:46,560
Speaker 1: There's no doubt in my mind that Lebron was in

2529
02:08:46,640 --> 02:08:48,879
Speaker 1: on it. There's no doubt in my mind that Anthony

2530
02:08:48,960 --> 02:08:52,560
Speaker 1: Davis may have even heard inklings of it potentially but

2531
02:08:52,600 --> 02:08:57,240
Speaker 1: probably was guarded from it since his representation also represents

2532
02:08:57,320 --> 02:09:00,240
Speaker 1: Lebron James. And where does the loyalty lie. Don't know,

2533
02:09:00,360 --> 02:09:04,040
Speaker 1: maybe with Lebron James since Rich Paul is his lifetime friend.

2534
02:09:04,280 --> 02:09:06,839
Speaker 1: But okay, let's just say that it was a wider

2535
02:09:06,920 --> 02:09:10,160
Speaker 1: circle of people. This is the best you could come

2536
02:09:10,240 --> 02:09:13,280
Speaker 1: up with. If this really was weeks in the making.

2537
02:09:13,960 --> 02:09:16,800
Speaker 1: This is the best excuse as to why this was

2538
02:09:16,840 --> 02:09:21,880
Speaker 1: going This trade was consummated. This is going to go

2539
02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:25,040
Speaker 1: down for Dallas fans, as one of the biggest snow

2540
02:09:25,200 --> 02:09:29,240
Speaker 1: jobs that has ever occurred in the history of the league.

2541
02:09:29,720 --> 02:09:36,000
Speaker 1: They got waxed, they got dragged, they got jobbed. This

2542
02:09:36,320 --> 02:09:40,480
Speaker 1: is awful. Dallas fans are literally showing up to American

2543
02:09:40,520 --> 02:09:45,200
Speaker 1: Airlines Arena with a coffin and they're preaching about the

2544
02:09:45,320 --> 02:09:48,920
Speaker 1: death of the Dallas Mavericks. This is a funeral. It

2545
02:09:49,000 --> 02:09:52,680
Speaker 1: truly is okay, And hey Davis, to put this in terms,

2546
02:09:52,760 --> 02:09:55,560
Speaker 1: you know, for people who don't understand the gravity of this,

2547
02:09:55,640 --> 02:09:57,480
Speaker 1: maybe you're more of a football fan, maybe you're more

2548
02:09:57,480 --> 02:10:00,360
Speaker 1: of a baseball fan, but in food terms, because we

2549
02:10:00,400 --> 02:10:02,720
Speaker 1: all eat food, this would be like being offered a

2550
02:10:02,760 --> 02:10:05,760
Speaker 1: double double animal style with French fries in a shake.

2551
02:10:06,080 --> 02:10:08,920
Speaker 1: That's what the Lakers got. The Dallas Mavericks just got

2552
02:10:08,920 --> 02:10:11,320
Speaker 1: a bruised peach in two heads of romaine lettuce.

2553
02:10:11,440 --> 02:10:17,160
Speaker 2: Well, and as bo said earlier, the Nets got ten

2554
02:10:18,240 --> 02:10:21,360
Speaker 2: first round picks for a thirty four year old Kevin Durant,

2555
02:10:21,560 --> 02:10:26,040
Speaker 2: ten players and seconds, ten first round picks, and the

2556
02:10:26,080 --> 02:10:29,080
Speaker 2: Mavericks get one first round pick for a twenty five

2557
02:10:29,120 --> 02:10:30,120
Speaker 2: year old Lukadantik.

2558
02:10:30,200 --> 02:10:32,360
Speaker 5: Guys, if it makes the Mavericks feel any better, they're

2559
02:10:32,400 --> 02:10:34,640
Speaker 5: only losing by thirty five right now of the Caps.

2560
02:10:34,640 --> 02:10:40,120
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, so.

2561
02:10:40,920 --> 02:10:43,000
Speaker 3: And again where is the commissioner?

2562
02:10:44,120 --> 02:10:44,440
Speaker 1: This is.

2563
02:10:46,080 --> 02:10:51,920
Speaker 2: It's in and in some respects it's great because it ensures,

2564
02:10:53,600 --> 02:10:57,280
Speaker 2: assuming Lukadantis can stay in shape, the future of the

2565
02:10:57,360 --> 02:11:01,760
Speaker 2: Lakers beyond Lebron James. That's that's the good news. But

2566
02:11:01,880 --> 02:11:04,000
Speaker 2: it doesn't answer the question about the future of the

2567
02:11:04,080 --> 02:11:07,520
Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks. And that is a legit question. And you

2568
02:11:07,560 --> 02:11:10,440
Speaker 2: mentioned with Addelson taking over as principal owner of the

2569
02:11:10,440 --> 02:11:14,000
Speaker 2: Mavericks from Mark Cuban with his ties to Las Vegas,

2570
02:11:14,040 --> 02:11:15,960
Speaker 2: what is going on right now?

2571
02:11:16,160 --> 02:11:19,080
Speaker 3: Commissioner, the commissioner.

2572
02:11:19,360 --> 02:11:23,080
Speaker 1: The commissioner is busy trying to shorten NBA games from

2573
02:11:23,160 --> 02:11:25,920
Speaker 1: twelve minute corners to ten minute corners. That's what he's

2574
02:11:25,960 --> 02:11:26,280
Speaker 1: busy with.

2575
02:11:26,320 --> 02:11:26,720
Speaker 4: Do you hear?

2576
02:11:27,160 --> 02:11:30,160
Speaker 1: Honestly, he's a busy eye, because that's true. That's two

2577
02:11:30,160 --> 02:11:32,320
Speaker 1: whole minutes you're trying to shave off of each quarter.

2578
02:11:32,640 --> 02:11:33,160
Speaker 1: That's great.

2579
02:11:33,400 --> 02:11:36,440
Speaker 2: Hard when when you're reaching for gimmicks and everything else.

2580
02:11:36,480 --> 02:11:41,360
Speaker 1: And okay, so we have from a reputable source and

2581
02:11:41,360 --> 02:11:43,480
Speaker 1: we should do this on the other side, Okay, I'll

2582
02:11:43,520 --> 02:11:46,400
Speaker 1: just say it. An NBA insider who says that he

2583
02:11:46,720 --> 02:11:48,800
Speaker 1: knows why this trade was consummating.

2584
02:11:48,800 --> 02:11:50,920
Speaker 3: All right, I want to hear that as we continue

2585
02:11:50,960 --> 02:11:51,480
Speaker 3: on this.

2586
02:11:51,640 --> 02:11:57,560
Speaker 2: It's Fox Football Sunday, Steve, Steve Harbin, and rich Omberger

2587
02:11:57,640 --> 02:12:01,600
Speaker 2: Here Fox Football Sunday. We're live from the Tyraq dot

2588
02:12:01,640 --> 02:12:05,040
Speaker 2: Com studios. All right, So, in the midst of all

2589
02:12:05,080 --> 02:12:07,760
Speaker 2: of our Super Bowl coverage, yes, we're also talking about

2590
02:12:07,800 --> 02:12:11,440
Speaker 2: the story in sports, that unbelievable trade between the MAVs

2591
02:12:11,480 --> 02:12:15,160
Speaker 2: and the Lakers involving Anthony Davis and Luka Doncic.

2592
02:12:15,280 --> 02:12:16,200
Speaker 3: Nico Harrison.

2593
02:12:16,240 --> 02:12:20,120
Speaker 2: You heard from him, the general manager of the Mavericks,

2594
02:12:20,120 --> 02:12:25,520
Speaker 2: who said that literally weeks, for weeks, he and Rob

2595
02:12:25,560 --> 02:12:28,440
Speaker 2: Polink at the GM of the Lakers, had spoken in

2596
02:12:28,520 --> 02:12:32,600
Speaker 2: total privacy with nobody else on the planet aware of

2597
02:12:32,640 --> 02:12:35,520
Speaker 2: what they were talking about in terms of this blockbuster deal.

2598
02:12:36,000 --> 02:12:39,760
Speaker 2: As Jason Kidd, the coach of the Mavericks, sitting right

2599
02:12:39,800 --> 02:12:43,600
Speaker 2: next to him, looked absolutely as people said, baffled by

2600
02:12:43,640 --> 02:12:45,800
Speaker 2: what Nico Harrison was saying that yes, I couldn't. I

2601
02:12:45,800 --> 02:12:48,040
Speaker 2: didn't even tell him because well, I just know what

2602
02:12:48,080 --> 02:12:50,960
Speaker 2: he thinks. I know who he likes. I mean, he

2603
02:12:51,000 --> 02:12:53,080
Speaker 2: didn't like Luka Dante. I don't know what do you

2604
02:12:53,120 --> 02:12:55,960
Speaker 2: mean by that, But now you say rich you have

2605
02:12:56,600 --> 02:13:00,760
Speaker 2: somebody in me. Because this is now an under full investigation,

2606
02:13:01,320 --> 02:13:03,640
Speaker 2: how this deal went down well.

2607
02:13:03,520 --> 02:13:06,160
Speaker 1: And also why? I think that is going to be

2608
02:13:06,480 --> 02:13:09,920
Speaker 1: the question that's most often asked. Why did this happen?

2609
02:13:10,280 --> 02:13:14,600
Speaker 1: What was the reason that Luka Doncic was so unpalatable

2610
02:13:14,680 --> 02:13:18,200
Speaker 1: for the Dallas Mavericks to have within their building that

2611
02:13:18,360 --> 02:13:21,200
Speaker 1: they were going to ship off an all NBA twenty

2612
02:13:21,200 --> 02:13:25,120
Speaker 1: five year old for essentially peanuts. And then also on

2613
02:13:25,160 --> 02:13:28,320
Speaker 1: the Lakers side, what's going on with Ad? Why were

2614
02:13:28,440 --> 02:13:31,280
Speaker 1: the Lakers eager or Rob Polinka? I guess who is

2615
02:13:31,360 --> 02:13:34,760
Speaker 1: named as the only other co conspirator here in this

2616
02:13:34,880 --> 02:13:39,040
Speaker 1: trade so eager to ship off Ad? Well. NBA insider

2617
02:13:39,040 --> 02:13:42,000
Speaker 1: Bill Ryder with CBS Sports had some insights on how

2618
02:13:42,040 --> 02:13:43,600
Speaker 1: the Lakers got to this point.

2619
02:13:44,160 --> 02:13:47,800
Speaker 9: Last year, there was talk within the Lakers organization that

2620
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:51,280
Speaker 9: Lebron James had grown a little frustrated with Anthony Davis.

2621
02:13:51,280 --> 02:13:53,520
Speaker 9: It wasn't that necessary Ad was going to be traded.

2622
02:13:53,520 --> 02:13:56,480
Speaker 9: We obviously didn't report it on CBS Sports. It was just, hey,

2623
02:13:56,480 --> 02:13:58,959
Speaker 9: there's something to keep an eye on. Lebron is frustrated

2624
02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:00,920
Speaker 9: with AD, and he doesn't think that it's working.

2625
02:14:02,400 --> 02:14:04,840
Speaker 2: Okay, but that was in the intent when they gave

2626
02:14:04,960 --> 02:14:07,400
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis' last contract extension.

2627
02:14:07,760 --> 02:14:10,000
Speaker 3: The idea of AD when he came.

2628
02:14:09,800 --> 02:14:13,480
Speaker 2: To the Lakers was, obviously, we want you to help

2629
02:14:13,600 --> 02:14:16,720
Speaker 2: Lebron win a championship. But he did immediately that first year,

2630
02:14:17,600 --> 02:14:20,600
Speaker 2: and then we will build the future around Anthony Davis

2631
02:14:20,640 --> 02:14:24,879
Speaker 2: once Lebron steps down. At the time, did the Lakers

2632
02:14:24,920 --> 02:14:27,400
Speaker 2: maybe think that Lebron would still be playing at this

2633
02:14:27,600 --> 02:14:30,720
Speaker 2: level at age forty in his twenty second year. Maybe not,

2634
02:14:31,920 --> 02:14:35,440
Speaker 2: but that's where we are right now. I'm more curious. Look,

2635
02:14:36,120 --> 02:14:38,960
Speaker 2: I want to hear from Lebron. Oh yeah, well you have.

2636
02:14:39,320 --> 02:14:44,280
Speaker 1: In fact, he quote tweeted this little clip from CBS Sports.

2637
02:14:44,760 --> 02:14:47,760
Speaker 1: It now hows close to thirty million views thanks to

2638
02:14:47,840 --> 02:14:52,120
Speaker 1: Lebron James. He wrote you f and lyar on his

2639
02:14:52,480 --> 02:14:56,320
Speaker 1: official Twitter account. It's the very top of his Twitter account.

2640
02:14:56,400 --> 02:14:58,920
Speaker 1: That was about, you know, ten fifteen hours ago whatever

2641
02:14:58,960 --> 02:15:01,960
Speaker 1: it is. Very shortly after this news broke of the trade,

2642
02:15:02,600 --> 02:15:05,040
Speaker 1: and Bill Ryder went on CBS Sports and said what

2643
02:15:05,120 --> 02:15:07,800
Speaker 1: he said as an NBA insider, that he has heard

2644
02:15:07,840 --> 02:15:11,960
Speaker 1: grumblings that Lebron is upset with Anthony Davis that he's

2645
02:15:12,000 --> 02:15:14,720
Speaker 1: tired of the act that he wanted to move on

2646
02:15:14,840 --> 02:15:18,520
Speaker 1: from Davis. So Lebron James is protecting his reputation here

2647
02:15:18,560 --> 02:15:21,680
Speaker 1: because he's being implicated he's one of the reasons for

2648
02:15:21,720 --> 02:15:22,200
Speaker 1: this trade.

2649
02:15:22,320 --> 02:15:24,880
Speaker 2: I understand why he's getting defensive about that, but at

2650
02:15:24,880 --> 02:15:27,600
Speaker 2: some point he's going to have to answer questions like,

2651
02:15:28,360 --> 02:15:33,000
Speaker 2: are you upset that this organization made this trade in

2652
02:15:33,040 --> 02:15:34,920
Speaker 2: the middle of a season? By the way, twenty eight

2653
02:15:34,960 --> 02:15:37,880
Speaker 2: to nineteen very much in the conversation, right, It's not like,

2654
02:15:38,080 --> 02:15:38,520
Speaker 2: you know, some.

2655
02:15:38,560 --> 02:15:40,400
Speaker 3: Kind of year where you're thirteen and thirty.

2656
02:15:40,600 --> 02:15:43,240
Speaker 2: They're twenty eight to nineteen, comfortably now in the top

2657
02:15:43,320 --> 02:15:46,920
Speaker 2: six in the Western Conference, middle of the season, when

2658
02:15:47,400 --> 02:15:50,120
Speaker 2: everyone was openly talking about coming up to the tread

2659
02:15:50,160 --> 02:15:51,200
Speaker 2: line trade deadline.

2660
02:15:51,240 --> 02:15:52,320
Speaker 3: You know, we can we get the.

2661
02:15:52,600 --> 02:15:53,840
Speaker 1: Big guy out of Utah?

2662
02:15:53,840 --> 02:15:55,200
Speaker 2: You know, can we add a big you know, so

2663
02:15:55,400 --> 02:15:58,120
Speaker 2: that we can move ad into his natural four position

2664
02:15:58,200 --> 02:16:00,600
Speaker 2: instead of playing the five. Are you you upset at

2665
02:16:00,600 --> 02:16:04,280
Speaker 2: the organization now that you would at least Nico Harrison

2666
02:16:04,320 --> 02:16:07,160
Speaker 2: is saying, yeah, nobody knew about this. Are you upset

2667
02:16:07,200 --> 02:16:10,880
Speaker 2: that they would trade away Anthony Davis? Without you knowing

2668
02:16:10,960 --> 02:16:13,800
Speaker 2: about it. See, that's the way I want the question

2669
02:16:13,920 --> 02:16:17,800
Speaker 2: asked that way. Would I would frame the question this way, Steve.

2670
02:16:17,880 --> 02:16:21,680
Speaker 2: I would want somebody with the audacity to ask Lebron

2671
02:16:21,800 --> 02:16:26,000
Speaker 2: James this question this way. You're telling me, arguably the

2672
02:16:26,040 --> 02:16:31,800
Speaker 2: greatest player of all time playing in the biggest market

2673
02:16:31,880 --> 02:16:34,959
Speaker 2: or one of the biggest markets in all professional sports,

2674
02:16:35,400 --> 02:16:39,320
Speaker 2: wasn't made aware that the number two star on your

2675
02:16:39,400 --> 02:16:43,480
Speaker 2: roster is being traded away to to Dallas and that

2676
02:16:43,560 --> 02:16:47,320
Speaker 2: you guys are you guys were inheriting another All NBA player,

2677
02:16:47,920 --> 02:16:51,560
Speaker 2: Like you're telling me that nobody the Lakers did this

2678
02:16:51,680 --> 02:16:52,680
Speaker 2: over your head, Lebron.

2679
02:16:52,760 --> 02:16:55,760
Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying, Hey, I mean, if.

2680
02:16:55,640 --> 02:16:59,080
Speaker 2: Rob Polanka made this deal without consulting with you or

2681
02:16:59,120 --> 02:17:01,920
Speaker 2: any of your pe I mean, or the organization.

2682
02:17:02,080 --> 02:17:04,080
Speaker 1: You're telling me the genie busts didn't know about the

2683
02:17:04,240 --> 02:17:08,600
Speaker 1: genie didn't know Rob didn't talk to you, nobody's Lebron

2684
02:17:08,680 --> 02:17:10,600
Speaker 1: two gms.

2685
02:17:10,720 --> 02:17:12,800
Speaker 2: In the dead of the shooting that you know what,

2686
02:17:13,720 --> 02:17:18,760
Speaker 2: and then making a deal without ownership, coaches, players.

2687
02:17:18,360 --> 02:17:21,000
Speaker 1: Anybody else knowing about it. I mean, ask him that

2688
02:17:21,120 --> 02:17:22,320
Speaker 1: question that way.

2689
02:17:22,280 --> 02:17:25,039
Speaker 2: Because that's what Nico Harrison said, because if he is.

2690
02:17:25,040 --> 02:17:29,119
Speaker 1: Responding to quote tweeting a knee jerk reaction on Twitter,

2691
02:17:29,240 --> 02:17:34,080
Speaker 1: quote tweeting Bill Riders saying that Lebron James and Anthony

2692
02:17:34,160 --> 02:17:36,520
Speaker 1: Davis had friction and that's the reason why Lebron was

2693
02:17:36,560 --> 02:17:39,720
Speaker 1: comfortable shipping him off to Dallas. If he's so sensitive

2694
02:17:39,760 --> 02:17:43,720
Speaker 1: that he's willing to quote tweet an NBA insider suggesting

2695
02:17:43,760 --> 02:17:45,760
Speaker 1: that he had something to do with this, do you

2696
02:17:45,840 --> 02:17:49,640
Speaker 1: really think his ego could withstand somebody saying that Rob

2697
02:17:49,680 --> 02:17:52,959
Speaker 1: Polinka big boyd you here? Is that what you're leading

2698
02:17:53,040 --> 02:17:56,160
Speaker 1: us to believe that you have so little control Lebron

2699
02:17:56,280 --> 02:17:59,760
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles? You have so little roster control Lebron

2700
02:18:00,080 --> 02:18:03,119
Speaker 1: over the Lakers, even though you are arguably the greatest

2701
02:18:03,120 --> 02:18:08,439
Speaker 1: basketball player we've ever lived, whose best friend from childhood

2702
02:18:08,959 --> 02:18:13,520
Speaker 1: is the CEO of one of the biggest agencies in

2703
02:18:13,800 --> 02:18:16,640
Speaker 1: all of professional sports. You were one of the most

2704
02:18:16,680 --> 02:18:20,680
Speaker 1: well connected people on the planet, and you didn't know

2705
02:18:20,800 --> 02:18:24,680
Speaker 1: that Luca was coming to LA in trade for Anthony Davis.

2706
02:18:25,200 --> 02:18:27,360
Speaker 1: Is that really what you want us to believe? That's

2707
02:18:27,400 --> 02:18:29,960
Speaker 1: what you want me to write in ink on paper,

2708
02:18:30,440 --> 02:18:34,520
Speaker 1: that you, Lebron didn't know that you were completely left

2709
02:18:34,520 --> 02:18:38,320
Speaker 1: out of the circle of trust here, Lebron James. That's

2710
02:18:38,360 --> 02:18:42,680
Speaker 1: what you want us to believe. Okay, okay, if that

2711
02:18:42,920 --> 02:18:48,160
Speaker 1: much is happening unbeknownst to you, Lebron, I guess we

2712
02:18:48,480 --> 02:18:56,040
Speaker 1: just have to believe it, right, I guess again, that's

2713
02:18:56,280 --> 02:18:57,879
Speaker 1: what you want us to believe.

2714
02:18:58,640 --> 02:19:01,640
Speaker 2: I'm looking at on this much bigger scale. I'm just

2715
02:19:01,720 --> 02:19:08,200
Speaker 2: looking at the other twenty eight teams in the NBA, because, again,

2716
02:19:09,080 --> 02:19:13,800
Speaker 2: if Luka Doncic was on the market, if you're the Knicks,

2717
02:19:14,160 --> 02:19:18,080
Speaker 2: if you're any other team in the league, how were

2718
02:19:18,200 --> 02:19:23,160
Speaker 2: we not in on the idea? I mean, in other words,

2719
02:19:23,280 --> 02:19:27,000
Speaker 2: so now if we want to make a deal with

2720
02:19:27,120 --> 02:19:30,920
Speaker 2: another team and not include anybody else, we got the

2721
02:19:30,920 --> 02:19:36,400
Speaker 2: green light if we want to nobody if on an

2722
02:19:36,400 --> 02:19:40,320
Speaker 2: open market, imagine the whole that the Mavericks would have

2723
02:19:40,320 --> 02:19:41,280
Speaker 2: gotten for Luka Doncic.

2724
02:19:41,440 --> 02:19:42,080
Speaker 1: It's crazy.

2725
02:19:42,280 --> 02:19:44,480
Speaker 2: It's our twenty five year old coming up five straight

2726
02:19:44,520 --> 02:19:48,240
Speaker 2: years of being first team All NBA on an open market,

2727
02:19:49,560 --> 02:19:54,240
Speaker 2: saying that every team is any team who I mean again,

2728
02:19:54,360 --> 02:19:57,320
Speaker 2: you're talking ten to fifteen number one future picks. You're

2729
02:19:57,320 --> 02:20:00,160
Speaker 2: talking about frontline player again, Think of the whole all

2730
02:20:00,640 --> 02:20:03,320
Speaker 2: that when the when the when the Clippers had to

2731
02:20:03,320 --> 02:20:06,560
Speaker 2: get Paul George in order to sign Kawhi Leonard, that

2732
02:20:06,680 --> 02:20:07,760
Speaker 2: was the deal, right, you want me?

2733
02:20:07,840 --> 02:20:09,840
Speaker 3: You got to get Paul George. Look at the hall

2734
02:20:09,920 --> 02:20:10,720
Speaker 3: ok S got.

2735
02:20:10,959 --> 02:20:13,560
Speaker 2: It was out race seven first round plicks and Shay

2736
02:20:13,600 --> 02:20:17,560
Speaker 2: Gilgers Durant it was ten, ten first round picks.

2737
02:20:17,800 --> 02:20:20,720
Speaker 1: You're telling me on an open market, twenty five years old,

2738
02:20:20,840 --> 02:20:25,400
Speaker 1: prime of his career, all NBA Luka Doncic wouldn't have

2739
02:20:25,480 --> 02:20:26,880
Speaker 1: beat out Duran's deal.

2740
02:20:27,280 --> 02:20:29,760
Speaker 2: And why was the NBA so quick to approve this trade?

2741
02:20:30,959 --> 02:20:34,000
Speaker 2: Why wait a second? Really just like that?

2742
02:20:34,200 --> 02:20:36,840
Speaker 1: Okay, done? It doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. I

2743
02:20:36,920 --> 02:20:41,400
Speaker 1: mean it doesn't make sense. Okay again, even even if

2744
02:20:41,440 --> 02:20:45,360
Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks win a championship this upcoming season or

2745
02:20:45,400 --> 02:20:47,680
Speaker 1: this season, right you know, the twenty four to twenty

2746
02:20:47,680 --> 02:20:51,720
Speaker 1: five season, they hoist Selario Brian Trophy, it still doesn't

2747
02:20:51,720 --> 02:20:54,920
Speaker 1: make any sense. It still is a lopsided trade.

2748
02:20:55,080 --> 02:20:58,959
Speaker 5: Steve, actually have the reason why the trade was approved.

2749
02:21:00,200 --> 02:21:02,600
Speaker 5: It's because it fit within the salary cap and both

2750
02:21:02,600 --> 02:21:03,440
Speaker 5: teams agree to it.

2751
02:21:03,560 --> 02:21:07,480
Speaker 1: Again there again, open and shutcase. Thank you both, You're welcome.

2752
02:21:07,520 --> 02:21:11,680
Speaker 1: That's it and let me throw I'll tie the bow

2753
02:21:11,840 --> 02:21:14,920
Speaker 1: on the present, and Lebron didn't know about it. And

2754
02:21:15,000 --> 02:21:17,920
Speaker 1: Lebron didn't know about it. He was at a family

2755
02:21:17,959 --> 02:21:22,119
Speaker 1: dinner because Lebron James, when he's sitting down for pasta

2756
02:21:22,200 --> 02:21:27,840
Speaker 1: froud diavallo, he doesn't check Twitter. He's not answering text messages.

2757
02:21:28,240 --> 02:21:31,760
Speaker 1: James when he's sitting down for Crispy Calamari at the

2758
02:21:31,840 --> 02:21:37,760
Speaker 1: Lalive Garden, he's not. He's not communicating with Rob Pulika.

2759
02:21:38,240 --> 02:21:39,480
Speaker 1: Catch it up with the fan.

2760
02:21:39,640 --> 02:21:41,560
Speaker 5: They do that thing where you put your phone upside

2761
02:21:41,560 --> 02:21:43,720
Speaker 5: down that's on the table, and whoever picks up their

2762
02:21:43,720 --> 02:21:44,760
Speaker 5: phone first has to pay for it.

2763
02:21:44,800 --> 02:21:47,240
Speaker 1: They leave them in their Gucci bags at the store,

2764
02:21:47,760 --> 02:21:49,840
Speaker 1: by the way, not bringing them to the dinner table.

2765
02:21:49,879 --> 02:21:52,760
Speaker 14: That's where we break bread. This is the James gang.

2766
02:21:53,120 --> 02:21:57,160
Speaker 14: We sit down and when we have our mozzarella sticks,

2767
02:21:57,400 --> 02:21:59,920
Speaker 14: we will not be interfered with. Even if it is

2768
02:22:00,000 --> 02:22:04,600
Speaker 14: it's Nico Harrison, give me a break. I got a

2769
02:22:04,640 --> 02:22:06,000
Speaker 14: bridge to sell you too.

2770
02:22:06,160 --> 02:22:09,240
Speaker 1: If you want to believe that it's in Brooklyn, it's

2771
02:22:09,280 --> 02:22:11,080
Speaker 1: in good shape, by the way.

2772
02:22:11,240 --> 02:22:15,280
Speaker 2: Bill Ryder, who it now obviously has been called an

2773
02:22:15,320 --> 02:22:20,320
Speaker 2: EFN liar by Lebron James. I've known Bill a long time.

2774
02:22:20,480 --> 02:22:23,400
Speaker 2: Bill really cut his chops early in his career. He

2775
02:22:23,520 --> 02:22:26,520
Speaker 2: covered Lebron's entire rookies first year with the Miami Heat.

2776
02:22:27,000 --> 02:22:29,800
Speaker 2: So it's not like he doesn't know Lebron or vice versa.

2777
02:22:29,879 --> 02:22:35,160
Speaker 2: They know each other very well. So Bill Ryder, there

2778
02:22:35,320 --> 02:22:38,000
Speaker 2: there's a connection there that goes way back with him

2779
02:22:38,000 --> 02:22:40,800
Speaker 2: and Lebron. So there's not It's not like he would

2780
02:22:40,840 --> 02:22:43,920
Speaker 2: just make something up like that. He just would not

2781
02:22:44,160 --> 02:22:48,200
Speaker 2: do that when it pertains to Lebron James. And by

2782
02:22:48,200 --> 02:22:52,000
Speaker 2: the way, what did he All he reported was is

2783
02:22:52,040 --> 02:22:57,640
Speaker 2: that I'd heard some grumblings about some frustration about Lebron

2784
02:22:57,680 --> 02:22:58,039
Speaker 2: and AD.

2785
02:22:58,320 --> 02:23:00,520
Speaker 1: I don't think that that's out of line.

2786
02:23:00,760 --> 02:23:02,680
Speaker 5: You think Lebron told him to put that out there

2787
02:23:02,720 --> 02:23:04,560
Speaker 5: so he could call him a liar and get some.

2788
02:23:05,040 --> 02:23:07,400
Speaker 1: I have no idea. By the way, and Bill Ryder's

2789
02:23:07,440 --> 02:23:10,879
Speaker 1: not backing down. One hour ago, he doubled down, he

2790
02:23:10,920 --> 02:23:13,519
Speaker 1: said on hearing Lebron in the past, a little frustrated

2791
02:23:13,560 --> 02:23:16,120
Speaker 1: with AD. Been talking about this since at least twenty

2792
02:23:16,200 --> 02:23:19,920
Speaker 1: twenty three. It is like Bronni being drafted by the Lakers,

2793
02:23:20,040 --> 02:23:23,400
Speaker 1: Erredick hired as a head coach. Just another important piece

2794
02:23:23,440 --> 02:23:26,720
Speaker 1: of context to try and figure out what lebron knew

2795
02:23:26,920 --> 02:23:28,320
Speaker 1: or didn't about the trade.

2796
02:23:28,800 --> 02:23:30,680
Speaker 5: What a great name, by the way, Bill Ryder.

2797
02:23:30,520 --> 02:23:32,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a solid name.

2798
02:23:32,240 --> 02:23:33,640
Speaker 5: If he was Steve Talker in there.

2799
02:23:34,120 --> 02:23:37,640

2839
02:25:17,080 --> 02:25:21,320
Speaker 2: Right right, So I guess immediately she said, well she

2840
02:25:21,400 --> 02:25:23,440
Speaker 2: has the top three and I said, well, one of

2841

Speaker 2: them I know is Intro.

2842
02:25:24,440 --> 02:25:25,600
Speaker 3: She goes, no, he's not on the list.

2843
02:25:25,640 --> 02:25:28,960
Speaker 2: I'm like what and so, so, as it turns out,

2844
02:25:29,560 --> 02:25:32,480
Speaker 2: it wasn't the fastest in terms of games play to

2845
02:25:32,480 --> 02:25:34,880
Speaker 2: get to just two thousand hits at also two hundred

2846
02:25:34,920 --> 02:25:36,440
Speaker 2: home runs and two hundred stolen base.

2847
02:25:36,680 --> 02:25:39,480
Speaker 1: All of that was para Oh god, you didn't tell.

2848
02:25:39,280 --> 02:25:40,680
Speaker 6: Me, that's the line.

2849
02:25:40,440 --> 02:25:43,360
Speaker 7: I'm looking at it, and so my fault for not

2850
02:25:43,600 --> 02:25:44,960
Speaker 7: going further into it.

2851
02:25:45,000 --> 02:25:46,680
Speaker 6: But at that point I trusted the internet.

2852
02:25:46,920 --> 02:25:49,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh no, no, no, no, I I was throwing I

2853
02:25:49,160 --> 02:25:52,280
Speaker 2: guesses and like she's like no, no, and I'm like.

2854
02:25:52,280 --> 02:25:55,320
Speaker 7: What and so yeah, so I did not ask the

2855
02:25:55,360 --> 02:25:57,240
Speaker 7: proper question because the inner I'm looking.

2856
02:25:57,120 --> 02:25:58,840
Speaker 6: At it right now, I'm so frustrated. So I'm not.

2857
02:25:59,000 --> 02:26:00,000
Speaker 1: So you're not my daddy.

2858
02:26:00,120 --> 02:26:04,520
Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not your daddy. Yeah, just plaint Patrick.

2859
02:26:04,879 --> 02:26:05,959

2860
02:26:07,680 --> 02:26:07,920
Speaker 10: I mean.

2861
02:26:08,080 --> 02:26:10,039
Speaker 6: I agree that maybe he should have got but I

2862
02:26:10,080 --> 02:26:12,160
Speaker 6: literally cannot. I'm looking at this Internet right now, and

2863
02:26:12,160 --> 02:26:14,920
Speaker 6: so I'm so mad because literally that's what I searched.

2864
02:26:14,959 --> 02:26:18,360
Speaker 1: So anyway, I was daddy, but now I can't.

2865

Speaker 6: You're still the daddy. You're still the daddy. But the

2867
02:26:20,840 --> 02:26:23,320
Speaker 6: point is, don't trust the Internet. That is the whole

2868
02:26:23,360 --> 02:26:24,200
Speaker 6: point in all of this.

2869

2921
02:28:47,920 --> 02:28:50,560
Speaker 2: nightmare for the NBA. In fact, I'm looking at another

2922
02:28:50,680 --> 02:28:55,720
Speaker 2: headline here that says, this confusion around the league is

2923
02:28:55,840 --> 02:29:00,520
Speaker 2: quite high after this trade, like what happen here?

2924
02:29:01,360 --> 02:29:04,080

Speaker 2: an absolute hiding. But there there are a lot of

2927
02:29:08,600 --> 02:29:12,760
Speaker 2: people in the NBA that one answers on exactly what

2928
02:29:13,240 --> 02:29:13,920
Speaker 2: just happened.

2929
02:29:13,959 --> 02:29:16,000
Speaker 1: If you are how to dippen one of the other

2930
02:29:16,200 --> 02:29:20,560
Speaker 1: twenty eight owners not involved in this trade, you're probably,

2931
02:29:21,080 --> 02:29:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean on hold with the Commissioner's office. The league

2932
02:29:24,040 --> 02:29:26,920
Speaker 1: office is hold, and I mean because everybody else is

2933
02:29:26,959 --> 02:29:31,000
Speaker 1: calling too, and the question is, what the hell just happened?

2934
02:29:31,200 --> 02:29:34,800
Speaker 1: Like I need an answer because I thought that we

2935
02:29:34,800 --> 02:29:38,440
Speaker 1: were all competing with each other, right exactly, that this

2936
02:29:38,680 --> 02:29:41,720
Speaker 1: was a league where we all had an opportunity with

2937
02:29:41,879 --> 02:29:45,800
Speaker 1: the lottery draft. And you know, I listen, we really

2938
02:29:46,000 --> 02:29:49,320
Speaker 1: there's cap salaries in their salary, you know, all this stuff, right,

2939
02:29:49,320 --> 02:29:50,959
Speaker 1: we put in all these things to make this a

2940
02:29:51,000 --> 02:29:54,959
Speaker 1: competitive league with great parody. So could you explain to me?

2941
02:29:55,640 --> 02:29:58,240
Speaker 1: And yes, I'll wait on hold, but could you explain

2942
02:29:58,280 --> 02:30:03,680
Speaker 1: to me how the Lakers just got Luka Doncic and

2943
02:30:03,760 --> 02:30:09,000
Speaker 1: they traded old groceries to the Dallas Mavericks one first pick?

2944
02:30:09,360 --> 02:30:10,360
Speaker 4: What team?

2945
02:30:10,520 --> 02:30:13,400
Speaker 5: I'm so tired of the picks? Man, picks are great,

2946
02:30:13,440 --> 02:30:14,959
Speaker 5: but you have to do something with them eventually.

2947
02:30:15,560 --> 02:30:18,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, so like, but still they're they're they're valuable.

2948
02:30:18,840 --> 02:30:20,880
Speaker 5: So you think that you think that the Nets are

2949
02:30:20,920 --> 02:30:22,520
Speaker 5: going to use all those picks that they got for

2950
02:30:22,600 --> 02:30:25,280
Speaker 5: Katie eventually because there's not enough roster space for that.

2951
02:30:25,200 --> 02:30:28,840
Speaker 1: And they won't, but they will use them. What capital

2952
02:30:28,879 --> 02:30:30,120
Speaker 1: to trade for me? Maybe?

2953
02:30:30,160 --> 02:30:32,400
Speaker 5: I mean the thunder have had picks forever and they

2954
02:30:32,400 --> 02:30:35,840
Speaker 5: haven't traded for anybody of note, So let's talk about them.

2955
02:30:35,920 --> 02:30:37,680
Speaker 5: What player are they going to get that's better than

2956
02:30:37,680 --> 02:30:38,400
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis?

2957
02:30:38,480 --> 02:30:42,200
Speaker 1: Right now? I get where you're paying.

2958
02:30:43,520 --> 02:30:45,760
Speaker 5: Who is actually going to trade a player of Adis caliber?

2959
02:30:45,879 --> 02:30:48,440
Speaker 1: I get it, But I'm saying even with a d

2960
02:30:48,680 --> 02:30:52,400
Speaker 1: So say, like, let's say all things considered, the trade

2961
02:30:52,440 --> 02:30:54,959
Speaker 1: is the exact same in terms of the people involved,

2962
02:30:54,959 --> 02:30:58,360
Speaker 1: Mark Keith Morris, look at Dogs eighty. The whole thing

2963
02:30:58,440 --> 02:31:02,000
Speaker 1: is all the same. The Dallas Mavericks still should have

2964
02:31:02,040 --> 02:31:08,640
Speaker 1: gotten as.

2965
02:31:06,160 --> 02:31:08,119
Speaker 5: Harrison's a bad GM that didn't do his job.

2966
02:31:11,560 --> 02:31:14,879
Speaker 2: Harrison is a pun in this thing. We'll take this clear.

2967
02:31:15,240 --> 02:31:17,800
Speaker 2: Nico Harrison is not calling the shots.

2968
02:31:17,800 --> 02:31:19,480
Speaker 5: Did you guys hear about his Nike presentation?

2969
02:31:20,000 --> 02:31:20,480
Speaker 1: Was it good?

2970
02:31:20,760 --> 02:31:24,000
Speaker 5: Uh? Basically he admitted to being the sole reason that

2971
02:31:24,120 --> 02:31:27,080
Speaker 5: Nike didn't sign Steph Curry nice because he called him

2972
02:31:27,120 --> 02:31:30,240
Speaker 5: Seth And the presentation was clearly meant for Kevin Durant

2973
02:31:30,240 --> 02:31:32,160
Speaker 5: Oh no, and they wouldn't give him a He wouldn't

2974
02:31:32,160 --> 02:31:34,360
Speaker 5: give him a signature shoe. Nico Harrison was in charge

2975
02:31:34,400 --> 02:31:34,560
Speaker 5: of that.

2976
02:31:34,720 --> 02:31:37,280
Speaker 3: So all right, guys, don't forget after the show.

Speaker 2: the other side, we're gonna have some final thoughts on

2985
02:31:52,800 --> 02:31:57,080
Speaker 2: this tumultuous Sunday one week away from Super Bowl fifty nine.

2986
02:31:57,120 --> 02:32:03,039
Speaker 3: This is Fox Football Sunday.

2987
02:32:01,879 --> 02:32:07,840
Speaker 2: Steve Harbin or rich Ormburger Fox Football Sunday. We're alive

2988
02:32:07,920 --> 02:32:10,120
Speaker 2: from the ti iraq dot com studios. I want to

2989
02:32:10,120 --> 02:32:13,600
Speaker 2: hank our crew today. She can always be my daddy.

2990
02:32:13,680 --> 02:32:19,040
Speaker 2: I will trade regarding Oh that's uh well, now we

2991
02:32:19,400 --> 02:32:21,720
Speaker 2: sort of caught her in a private conversation there.

2992
02:32:22,040 --> 02:32:23,960
Speaker 1: That would be Monsey Belania's.

2993
02:32:25,760 --> 02:32:28,160
Speaker 3: Sam, who's here and wanted to hear what.

2994
02:32:30,120 --> 02:32:33,400
Speaker 2: I wasn't talking to her. I was just acknowledging her Sam.

2995
02:32:33,520 --> 02:32:36,000
Speaker 2: Sam has apparently forgotten. Sam has run the board for

2996
02:32:36,440 --> 02:32:38,720
Speaker 2: hundreds and hundreds of shows of mine over the years,

2997
02:32:38,760 --> 02:32:41,960
Speaker 2: but it's been a while, and so he is now

2998
02:32:42,160 --> 02:32:42,760
Speaker 2: he's really.

2999
02:32:42,560 --> 02:32:46,800
Speaker 1: Excited about that. Iowa, He's delirious. Did you watch you have?

3000
02:32:46,879 --> 02:32:50,320
Speaker 2: They had the postgame ceremony to give Caitlin Clark a

3001
02:32:50,440 --> 02:32:51,280
Speaker 2: retired Jersey.

3002
02:32:51,320 --> 02:32:51,879
Speaker 1: Did they do that?

3003
02:32:52,320 --> 02:32:54,760
Speaker 11: They didn't televise it, but it was immediately after there.

3004
02:32:56,760 --> 02:32:58,959
Speaker 3: I even watched that game. I don't know it was.

3005
02:32:59,080 --> 02:32:59,440
Speaker 1: I don't know.

3006
02:32:59,440 --> 02:33:02,640
Speaker 11: They went to something else, but I am distracted and

3007
02:33:02,800 --> 02:33:06,080
Speaker 11: overstimulated from that win and not the Luca News.

3008
02:33:06,280 --> 02:33:08,680
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Well, I'm sort of with you on that one.

3009
02:33:08,680 --> 02:33:11,520
Speaker 2: But at least now because it's not so much the trade,

3010
02:33:11,520 --> 02:33:14,280
Speaker 2: I'm more curious about the process and everything else on

3011
02:33:14,360 --> 02:33:14,840
Speaker 2: the process.

3012
02:33:14,879 --> 02:33:16,840
Speaker 3: But again, if you are to trust that process, if

3013
02:33:16,840 --> 02:33:17,199
Speaker 3: you are.

3014
02:33:17,120 --> 02:33:20,959
Speaker 2: To broadcast a game in which Kaylen Clark, who's the

3015
02:33:21,000 --> 02:33:24,640
Speaker 2: only woman that anyone really wants to watch on TV,

3016
02:33:25,440 --> 02:33:27,640
Speaker 2: and the idea is she's going to be honored after

3017
02:33:27,720 --> 02:33:30,520
Speaker 2: the game is producing that game, wouldn't you think that

3018
02:33:30,520 --> 02:33:33,320
Speaker 2: that would be wise to carry that part of it,

3019
02:33:33,400 --> 02:33:34,640
Speaker 2: even if it's after the game.

3020
02:33:34,760 --> 02:33:35,040
Speaker 4: Yeah?

3021
02:33:35,120 --> 02:33:38,039
Speaker 11: Probably, Yeah, they could. I mean they went to something else,

3022
02:33:38,080 --> 02:33:38,440
Speaker 11: I don't know.

3023
02:33:38,640 --> 02:33:41,520
Speaker 2: No disrespect to the USC women, a top five school

3024
02:33:41,520 --> 02:33:44,080
Speaker 2: in the country getting upset by Iowa doesn't really do

3025
02:33:44,120 --> 02:33:46,440
Speaker 2: a service to the Iowa women as well, But why

3026
02:33:46,440 --> 02:33:48,560
Speaker 2: would you not show that that was sort of the

3027
02:33:49,120 --> 02:33:50,760
Speaker 2: idea of that game, even being.

3028
02:33:50,879 --> 02:33:53,120
Speaker 11: Yeah, I was surprised that I didn't get to watch

3029
02:33:53,160 --> 02:33:54,680
Speaker 11: that a little bit, but they did. They did interview

3030
02:33:54,720 --> 02:33:56,400
Speaker 11: her during the game a bunch, so she got on

3031
02:33:56,440 --> 02:33:59,360
Speaker 11: the TV quite a bit. Clearly her presence there helped

3032
02:33:59,480 --> 02:34:00,000
Speaker 11: fuel this up.

3033
02:34:00,520 --> 02:34:03,280
Speaker 2: And then there's Bo, who, uh you know, Bo is

3034
02:34:03,320 --> 02:34:07,280
Speaker 2: a diehard Laker fan. He's wording Laker geared today, and look,

3035
02:34:07,760 --> 02:34:10,240
Speaker 2: we said the same thing about the Dodgers, another one

3036
02:34:10,280 --> 02:34:13,720
Speaker 2: of Bo's allegiances where the whole world is complaining about

3037
02:34:13,800 --> 02:34:17,000
Speaker 2: how the Dodgers is spending money and those like nuh,

3038
02:34:17,160 --> 02:34:17,800
Speaker 2: tough on you.

3039
02:34:18,000 --> 02:34:19,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I really don't give a.

3040
02:34:19,920 --> 02:34:24,200
Speaker 2: Rats ass about how you care about my team spending money,

3041
02:34:24,800 --> 02:34:25,760
Speaker 2: and the same thing with Laker.

3042
02:34:25,840 --> 02:34:27,600
Speaker 3: I don't care how this deal went down.

3043
02:34:27,640 --> 02:34:29,760
Speaker 2: All I know is we just got a twenty five

3044
02:34:29,840 --> 02:34:32,119
Speaker 2: year old superstar for nothing.

3045
02:34:32,360 --> 02:34:37,920
Speaker 1: If it's great, If Bo or anybody out there is wondering, hmm,

3046
02:34:38,959 --> 02:34:42,120
Speaker 1: is this really a good deal for the Lakers? Like

3047
02:34:42,200 --> 02:34:45,039
Speaker 1: am I one hundred percent sure? I'm on board with

3048
02:34:45,160 --> 02:34:48,879
Speaker 1: shipping a d off to the Dallas Mavericks for you know,

3049
02:34:50,040 --> 02:34:55,440
Speaker 1: you know what, leftovers from the Lakers refrigerator to get

3050
02:34:55,520 --> 02:34:59,480
Speaker 1: Luka Dancic, a twenty five year old NBA All NBA star.

3051
02:35:00,400 --> 02:35:03,480
Speaker 1: Look no further than Dallas Mavericks fan Twitter right now.

3052
02:35:04,920 --> 02:35:08,720
Speaker 1: If you want confirmation that the Lakers won this trade,

3053
02:35:09,360 --> 02:35:12,920
Speaker 1: just see what's happening out front of American Airlines Arena

3054
02:35:13,240 --> 02:35:13,640
Speaker 1: right now.

3055
02:35:13,720 --> 02:35:16,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, you only need the video of MAVs fans carrying

3056
02:35:16,320 --> 02:35:19,200
Speaker 5: a coffin set to the song See You Again from

3057
02:35:19,240 --> 02:35:20,080
Speaker 5: Fast and Furious.

3058
02:35:22,720 --> 02:35:23,320
Speaker 1: The Mavericks.

3059
02:35:23,640 --> 02:35:28,080
Speaker 2: The Mavericks are trailing at halftime to the Cavaliers ninety

3060
02:35:28,160 --> 02:35:30,360
Speaker 2: They just gave up ninety one points and a half.

3061
02:35:31,440 --> 02:35:33,720
Speaker 2: I mean, what it was Jason Kidds saying to his

3062
02:35:33,800 --> 02:35:36,200
Speaker 2: team right now at halftime? What do you think they're

3063
02:35:36,200 --> 02:35:38,600
Speaker 2: down ninety one to forty six at the half. By

3064
02:35:38,600 --> 02:35:41,119
Speaker 2: the way, this La Mavericks team, twenty six and.

3065
02:35:41,080 --> 02:35:44,240
Speaker 5: Twenty three, they're a playoff team right now, how late

3066
02:35:44,320 --> 02:35:46,199
Speaker 5: do you think that team was up reading the news

3067
02:35:46,240 --> 02:35:47,119
Speaker 5: just like everybody else.

3068
02:35:47,760 --> 02:35:50,119
Speaker 1: I mean, they didn't sleep. I mean some of those

3069
02:35:50,160 --> 02:35:51,720
Speaker 1: players honestly probably didn't.

3070
02:35:51,800 --> 02:35:53,920
Speaker 2: And by the way, remember this La Mavericks team that's

3071
02:35:53,920 --> 02:35:58,280
Speaker 2: been playing without Luca since Christmas Day and they're twenty

3072
02:35:58,320 --> 02:36:00,760
Speaker 2: six and twenty three, so it's not like, you know,

3073
02:36:01,000 --> 02:36:04,879
Speaker 2: they completely evaporated without Luka Dancish, but they evaporated today

3074
02:36:05,680 --> 02:36:06,720
Speaker 2: ninety one points.

3075
02:36:07,320 --> 02:36:09,480
Speaker 3: I mean, you really have to be trying, you have,

3076
02:36:09,760 --> 02:36:11,200
Speaker 3: I mean, just do the math.

3077
02:36:12,760 --> 02:36:17,600
Speaker 2: That's twenty four minutes that the Cavs scored ninety one points.

3078
02:36:17,720 --> 02:36:19,640
Speaker 5: I just one time, I wish one of these teams

3079
02:36:19,680 --> 02:36:21,400
Speaker 5: would do this and then not pull up in the

3080
02:36:21,400 --> 02:36:23,240
Speaker 5: second half, like in the Cavs, just go for two

3081
02:36:23,280 --> 02:36:23,920
Speaker 5: hundred please.

3082
02:36:24,320 --> 02:36:26,200
Speaker 1: Oh it'd be great, just so much fun. Oh.

3083
02:36:26,240 --> 02:36:29,160
Speaker 2: I mean they're on pace to break the record for

3084
02:36:29,240 --> 02:36:32,760
Speaker 2: a regulation game. So we'll see if this continues. But

3085
02:36:34,800 --> 02:36:36,840
Speaker 2: I just can't wait for the Lakers. I want to

3086
02:36:36,840 --> 02:36:39,760
Speaker 2: hear Rob Polenka, Nico Harrison, GM and the Mavericks said,

3087
02:36:39,800 --> 02:36:42,920
Speaker 2: you were the only two people. You didn't tell Genie Buss,

3088
02:36:43,080 --> 02:36:45,800
Speaker 2: you didn't tell Lebron, you didn't tell JJ right, you

3089
02:36:45,879 --> 02:36:49,680
Speaker 2: told nobody. I'm about this trade that you and Harrison

3090
02:36:49,720 --> 02:36:52,279
Speaker 2: were talking about for according to it weeks.

3091
02:36:52,520 --> 02:36:56,680
Speaker 1: Imagine Jason Kidd's pregame speech was like the same thing

3092
02:36:56,720 --> 02:37:00,600
Speaker 1: that flight attendants say in case of emergency landing, you know,

3093
02:37:01,000 --> 02:37:05,800
Speaker 1: like we have exits, we have if an oxygen mask

3094
02:37:06,080 --> 02:37:08,920
Speaker 1: is deployed from the silly make sure you fasten yours

3095
02:37:08,959 --> 02:37:10,440
Speaker 1: to your face before helping others.

3096
02:37:10,520 --> 02:37:12,680
Speaker 5: I'm I'm setting the line. It's six and a half

3097
02:37:12,680 --> 02:37:16,400
Speaker 5: Bible references for Rob Polinka. No, but the introductory pressor

3098
02:37:17,080 --> 02:37:20,160
Speaker 5: if KCP was Manna from heaven. I'm really excited to

3099
02:37:20,200 --> 02:37:21,720
Speaker 5: hear what Luka Doncic is.

3100
02:37:22,600 --> 02:37:25,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm telling you right now, this is biblical.

3101
02:37:25,440 --> 02:37:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean it really is. This is this for Dallas fans,

3102
02:37:28,959 --> 02:37:31,600
Speaker 1: it is the end times. They are they are treating

3103
02:37:31,640 --> 02:37:37,200
Speaker 1: this as though uh, somebody has has has taken a

3104
02:37:38,080 --> 02:37:42,080
Speaker 1: first born from them, and they're handling it actually shockingly well.

3105
02:37:42,360 --> 02:37:44,320
Speaker 1: As far as we know, no fires have been set.

3106
02:37:44,680 --> 02:37:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean, no cars have been flipped over. There isn't

3107
02:37:47,520 --> 02:37:51,240
Speaker 1: an angry mob. It seems to be one that's a

3108
02:37:51,360 --> 02:37:57,160
Speaker 1: very very least compliant with local laws. I this is

3109
02:37:57,640 --> 02:38:00,360
Speaker 1: the most shocking trade, or actually, I don't want to

3110
02:38:00,360 --> 02:38:02,800
Speaker 1: say the most I think we're all very hyperbolic when

3111
02:38:02,800 --> 02:38:05,240
Speaker 1: things like this happened. But this is one of the

3112
02:38:05,280 --> 02:38:10,320
Speaker 1: most shocking trades in NBA history, certainly in sports history.

3113
02:38:10,440 --> 02:38:11,000
Speaker 4: It is.

3114
02:38:11,080 --> 02:38:13,280
Speaker 2: It is the most shocking, not just because of who

3115
02:38:13,360 --> 02:38:16,720
Speaker 2: was involved in the trade, but how it went down.

3116
02:38:16,879 --> 02:38:20,320
Speaker 2: So that's what's taken this to the way next level.

3117
02:38:20,360 --> 02:38:22,640
Speaker 5: I was asleep and my daughter woke me up, and

3118
02:38:22,680 --> 02:38:24,440
Speaker 5: I looked at my phone and I saw that I

3119
02:38:24,480 --> 02:38:27,040
Speaker 5: had like fifteen text messages and my Twitter was blowing up,

3120
02:38:27,040 --> 02:38:28,240
Speaker 5: and I'm like, what is going on?

3121
02:38:28,560 --> 02:38:31,480
Speaker 2: I told you my youngest son, Garrett, twenty six years old,

3122
02:38:31,520 --> 02:38:35,440
Speaker 2: a lifelong Laker, got literally a primal scream. I thought,

3123
02:38:35,720 --> 02:38:42,240
Speaker 2: I thought, like something happened. I'm downstairs. Oh I'm like what, No,

3124
02:38:42,600 --> 02:38:43,320
Speaker 2: that's not real.

3125
02:38:43,560 --> 02:38:46,120
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, go back to bed, Garrett.

3126
02:38:46,120 --> 02:38:50,280
Speaker 1: It's just god damn. Yeah, that's not a real. No way.

3127
02:38:50,800 --> 02:38:52,480
Speaker 2: And then when I heard the terms of the deal,

3128
02:38:52,640 --> 02:38:55,520
Speaker 2: because I'm thinking, what did they give up the reeves?

3129
02:38:56,360 --> 02:38:58,959
Speaker 3: They gave up their entire roster? Why they give up here?

3130
02:38:59,640 --> 02:39:03,120
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna MONSI was right. The Internet's only

3131
02:39:03,120 --> 02:39:06,880
Speaker 1: good for cab videos. Yeah, that's it. I you know what, Honestly,

3132
02:39:07,040 --> 02:39:11,400
Speaker 1: after this trade has been consummated, that's it. I think

3133
02:39:11,520 --> 02:39:13,879
Speaker 1: I think we found that of Twitter. That's it. That's

3134
02:39:14,000 --> 02:39:16,920
Speaker 1: that's as far as it goes. It's Graham TikTok, like,

3135
02:39:16,959 --> 02:39:20,160
Speaker 1: this is it. Social media can sports. Social media has

3136
02:39:20,280 --> 02:39:24,880
Speaker 1: reached its climax. We we are now in the downturn,

3137
02:39:25,000 --> 02:39:28,400
Speaker 1: the Dan Newm heading toward conclusion we don't need it anymore.

3138
02:39:28,680 --> 02:39:29,600
Speaker 1: This is it.

3139
02:39:29,760 --> 02:39:31,959
Speaker 2: This is the end of the well honest bottom line

3140
02:39:32,120 --> 02:39:35,480
Speaker 2: is this was done as a favorite to us because normally,

3141
02:39:35,640 --> 02:39:38,640
Speaker 2: you know, you don't want to lose everything. Because we

3142
02:39:38,720 --> 02:39:41,040
Speaker 2: got five hours next week on Super Bowl Sunday and

3143
02:39:41,120 --> 02:39:41,600
Speaker 2: fill up.

3144
02:39:41,959 --> 02:39:43,240
Speaker 3: We didn't have to use it today.

3145
02:39:43,360 --> 02:39:44,640
Speaker 1: No, because we could use it.

3146
02:39:44,640 --> 02:39:48,000
Speaker 2: On this We saved all that stuff, full of much

3147
02:39:48,040 --> 02:39:50,280
Speaker 2: more coming up. Keep it right here. This is Fox

3148
